Re: Problems with StarOffice 5.0 Registration
No, it's still unregistered, because it says so on the title bar, and I've tried reinstalling like 5 times already. That's why I asked the list in the first place -- I can't for the life of me figure out what the problem is with it, and it dosen't seem to bother anyone else. Thanks for trying though. Anyone else have an idea???

Re: Problems with StarOffice 5.0 Registration
Mine worked. Make sure that you are typing a zero and not an oh when you are puting in your reg #. Also check to make sure that your first and last name and e-mail address are exactly the same as the ones you typed on the web page.

Problems with StarOffice 5.0 Registration
Steve, I am having the same problem registering StarOffice 5.0 that you explained. When I try to do an online registration I get the HTML page and email with my Customer Number and Registration Key, but there is a failure. When I try to enter the Customer Number and Registration Key by hand the Enable Key button is greyed out. If you manage to get past this problem can forward on your solution. Thanks.

Re: Problems with StarOffice 5.0 Registration
Hello All, Reading these emails has reminded me of something strange about the registration process. When registering On-line I was prompted for my customer number and my key. The problem was I was not aware of having a customer number, so simply entered my email address, then the key from the web page. This allowed me to continue the On-line registration and successfully compelete it. Then I was given my customer number both by the document and then later by email. Does anyone else find this a little 'counter-intuative' or as we say in England 'a bit silly' John David Lutz wrote: Steve, I am having the same problem registering StarOffice 5.0 that you explained.

Re: Problems with StarOffice 5.0 Registration
I did realize that the key is a hash of the name/email, and I was careful about that, but that *part* of the registration process isn't the problem. Maybe I wasn't clear enough, sorry about that. My problem, specifically, is that after I successfully obtain a registration key from StarDivision, both through email and on that webpage that shows up when you register, when I go to enter in the key, after being careful to type it in correctly, the option to activate the key remains ghosted. I'm lost at this point. Any other ideas?

Re: Problems with StarOffice 5.0 Registration
Hi, Steve! If the registration button is ghosted, I think the registration is OK. Maybe this is doen automagically if you do an online registration. You get the reg. key by email in fact you need to reinstall for some reason. Maybe? just my 2¢...
