Hi guys,
On a similar note I have a problem at my customer's office I can't seem to solve and I wonder if anyone can help.
It is part of the specification for my current project that I produce MS Visio drawings for the documentation. The company forces us to use a horrid application to order all IT stuff that only lets us buy from a predefined range of goods from approved vendors.
The company standard for Visio is still Visio Standard 2003 which is available on our software archive. The ordering system forced me to buy a copy of Visio 2007 Standard as 2003 isn't in the catalog any more. To compound this, the only selectable option for Visio was "license only" so I got a valid license key but no physical media or download.
The support department say they don't have the Visio 2007 install media and can't get it because it's not an approved product. The purchasing department (outsourced to Bangalore) insist they've performed their role as they've supplied a valid license key in response to my order and say it's the support department's problem. The support department say it's Bangalore's problem as they've made me buy software that's not on the approved list. *facedesks*
I have a legal license key. Does anyone have a copy of the Visio 2007 Standard install media please?
Thanks,
Paul.

Indeed - you can use MSDN media without problem (make sure not to select a
volume license version unless your key is a VL one). As long as the license
itself is readable you should be fine - you don't need to select a version
to install, it's determined solely by the key.
