Backup and Restore Your Microsoft Office Activation

This tip came in handy–I was repaving a machine and didn’t want to have to re-activate office. (For Office XP and 2003, backup the data.dat or opa11.dat files in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\OFFICE\DATA, for Office 2000, use telephone activation and write down the code they give you–it’s reusable).
