Even taking it to a shop will require you to have the original Office 2003 program/product
key.
You'll now have to look at replacing the Office 2003 CD.
Do you know your product key? Is it an OEM version.
If it isn't an OEM version - you can order a replacement.

| Thanks TaurArian, but I already have Peter Foldes Advice, however I do not
