Default move Office 2003 from drive D: to C:?

I currently have Office 2003 installed on Drive D:. Is there an easy way to
move it to drive C: of the same computer without uninstalling and
reinstalling?

System Mechanic (www.iolo.com) claims to have a tool that will painlessly
move an application from one drive to another but you have to purchase it
first. The relocation tool does *NOT* work in the 30-day trial period. I
have the registered version, but have not yet had need to test the
efficaciousness of the feature in question.

Personally, I'd just uninstall and reinstall - it'd be less hassle. Why
don't you wish to do so? There's no way it can be done manually, due to the
1000s of files scattered all over the drive (particularly in the Windows
folder) and the 100s of registry entries.
