Office 2007 Trial causing problems?
When I brought my laptop new it din't have office installed but it did have
the trial version of office 2007. I used this for the trial period (60 days I think) and then wanted to install my copy off office 2003. It would not let me install office 2003. Now months down the line I have been using open office for a while but I would like to have office 2003 back. Tried installing 2003 again but it says I am missing a file (see screen shot) but when I tried it on my brothers laptop (runs on XP) there was no problems and 2003 installed perfectly. (Screen shot - http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d2...nstall2003.jpg) I have tried unistalling office 2007 but when I press the unistall nothing happens and I have been unable to unistall it from my system. On top of this ever since I tried to unistall office 2007 my general system restore has never worked - not sure how it's affected that. Am I able just to delete out the entire microsoft office folder from my program files folder? It's all very annoying. |

You have to remove any trial version first, clear temp files & reboot, prior
to installing from cd http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928218/en-us "Carrie" wrote in message ...
