The transition probability of a linearly forced harmonic oscillator system is derived by expanding the evolution operator using an expansion theorem valid for operators obeying the commutation law, (A, B) = 1.

The correspondence principle for strongly coupled states is used to obtain approximate transition probabilities for a forced harmonic oscillator. For particular forcing potentials, of interest in the vibrational excitation of molecules, the results are shown to be valid even for low order transitions.

One-dimensional problem for quantum harmonic oscillator with "regular+random" frequency subjected to the external "regular+random" force is considered. Averaged transition probabilities are found.
