2007 trial version and 2003 full version
My laptop (Vista) came with the 2007 trial version installed. I installed my
2003 Office over it, but did not uninstall 2007 first. Word documents open in 2003, but Excel defaults to 2007. I don't have a key for 2007, nor do I want one. If I were to uninstall 2007 trial now, will it mess up the 2003 install? I only have one more install on my 2003 (three total, already installed on two), and don't want to waste the third on a reinstall.

2007 trial version and 2003 full version
Uninstall all versions of Office. Install 2003 again. It won't count as a
new install. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "Skyeswom" wrote in message ...

2007 trial version and 2003 full version
Hi, Skyeswom,
An installation of Office that is limited to a number of machines is not limited to a number of installations on a single machine. In other words, once you have licensed it on your laptop A, it can be installed on that laptop A any number of times. The limit is for distinct machines, as far as any license agreement of which I'm aware is concerned. I'd go to Windows Control Panel's Add/Remove Programs applet, remote Office 2007, then re-install Office 2003 from your installation media. -- Susan Ramlet ----------------------------- Please reply to the newsgroups where all may benefit.

2007 trial version and 2003 full version
Cool. Despite a typo, I meant "remove Office 2007". But I'm sure you figured
that out. Per the response from Peter Foldes, double-check your license agreement to ensure I've given you appropriate advice about the "number" of installations.
