Hi vgbond,

Do you have the “BES Inventory and License” Fixlet site subscribed? If so, have you looked at the “Microsoft Office Suite” inventory information? See attached… you can view it as summary or as an individual list.

Hey vgbond,

Each of those products is normally licensed differently, which is why we return them separately.

My suggestion would be look at this analysis in web reports and export to CSV and subtotal in Excel… or you could craft a session query to get all the results of the property that contained “2003” and run it at: http://webreportsurl:port/cgi-bin/besreports/besreports.exe?page=QNA

Try this:

values whose (it as lowercase contains “2003”) of results of bes property “Full Name of Installed Microsoft Office Suite”
