Default Removal of Office XP

Hi.
After updating a computer from Office XP to Office 2003 I discovered that
Office XP is still on th e computer. This is quite frustrating when I try to
update Office 2003 and in the same run updating Office XP.

How can I remove Office XP? I have tried to use the Add/Remove programs
without any luck.

Thank you in advance.

Possibly OfficeXp included a component that wasnt included in your version
of Office2003, so that component was left on the sys.

Hi.
Thank you for your answer.
That could be. Why is this the only computer I experience this problem? When
doing an update, it update all patches for Office XP.

Yes, it will take on all of the patches for XP even tho it only has one part
of it. As for why this system and not the others, I'd suggest running Belarc
Advisor and see what's on each of the computers. Obviously that one system
is not the same as the others.
