Problem

Microsoft can be quite efficient at removing information about old versions of Office from their site as soon as newer versions are released. But suppose you need licensing, system requirements or similar information for an older version that you own?

Solution

Product information for previous versions of Microsoft Office and related products will at least get you started.
