Hi,
If I installed a software in one computer, is there any way I can let
other users to access it? For example, if I installed Microsoft word in my
server, can other users use the Microsoft word as well? Or I have to
purchase that number of softwares to avoid the licensing problem? Thx.

Adrian,

Most programs require that you have a separate licence for every
installation. It sounds as though Terminal Services could do what you're
after, but if you're talking about a lot of users and regular access, it
makes sense to purchase a separate licence for each required installation
and install the application locally on each workstation. Depending on how
many installations you're looking at, there are bulk licensing options
available.

Go to http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/ for more information.

HTH,
Katherine
