Buying the software for your use

Here are the 2 steps:

• Contact ChemIT. (Future: Have PatH's office gate access to the Code? Provide to each Research Group's IT Representative?)

2) Purchase Microsoft Office Home Use Program License. Link to purchase available at:

Summary, valid as of Dec. 2, 2016:

Here's a direct link to the page that lets you install Office on a personally owned computer:

• https://portal.office.com/OLS/MySoftware.aspx

If you get a generic Microsoft login screen, when you enter your <NetID@cornell.edu> address into the <someone@example.com> box and tab to the next field, you will be forwarded to Cornell's login screen, where you can enter your NetID password.
