I installed Office 2010 Beta on November 2009. I need to know Office 2010 Beta Version will be properly working after the end of October 31st, 2010.

Can you help me please? That helps me to save money to avoid buying a new Office 2010 Professional for about US$499.99 or C$669.00

At the end of that date the beta Office will stop working. Your options will be to purchase the full Office or to downlad a trial version of the full 2010 Office.

And the trial won't last long will it?

No it won't, probably a month but for some reason Microsoft won't say until you download it.

EDIT: a quote from Microsoft
A Trial version allows you to evaluate the Office 2010 release for a limited amount of time without purchasing it. To use the Trial version, you must download the software and during the installation process, if prompted, enter the product activation key provided during the order process or from your order confirmation email. The Trial software needs to be activated within the first 30 days after the installation to utilise the full functionality of the Trial software. The trial period will begin when you activate the trial and during the activation process, you will be notified of the trial expiration date.

Classic M$. I don't know which is worse, the limited trials or the timed ones. Every Windows disc is a timed trial.
He could use OpenOffice, it's a full office suite, and it's free. Nothing could beat MSO, though. I went from MSO2k to OO.o 3.1, then to MSO2003, which I loved, then to MSO2007, which I loved a whole lot more and currently use.
 
Me too, I have Office 2007 and love it. Microsoft can be a pain in the arse sometimes but some of their products are polished.
 
office 2010 is a great product, there are so many ways to get at MS office at discount prices. Are you currently a student?
