uninstalling office 2007
My new computer came with Office 2007, I absolutely HATE it. I have the
Office 2003 Professional CD. Can I uninstall 07 and install 2003 in it's place or am I going to have error problems with a newer version being on the computer? Office 97 had an eraser download that allowed the previous version to work correctly. Thanks

Provided your 2003 version is a retail and not a previously installed OEM,
simply uninstall 2007 first "Reba" wrote in message ... My new computer came with Office 2007, I absolutely HATE it. I have the Office 2003 Professional CD.

It is a retail, thanks so much. I didn't want to start something I couldn't
finish. "DL" wrote: Provided your 2003 version is a retail and not a previously installed OEM, simply uninstall 2007 first "Reba" wrote in message ...

uninstalling office 2007
Well I'm glad to hear that I am not the only one that thinks 07 is lousy. I
had the same question you did - going back to 03. I AM SO TIRED of going to the help menu every time I want to find something on a toolbar. I don't know what MS was thinking. All I know is that 07 is just about the worst thing I ever saw; it appears to do nothing better than my 03 version. Reba, your not alone. /Steve "Reba" wrote: It is a retail, thanks so much.

uninstalling office 2007
I've been using office for years. and there's never been a version as bad as
07. not user friendly and for those of us used to our shortcuts that we've picked up over the years it's EXTREMELY annoying. I can't find anything it does better 03.

(The same goes for Windows 95-98-2000-XP-Vista.....)

uninstalling office 2007
I hsave been using Office since it first came out back in windows 95 days.
NONE of the changes from 97-2000-2002 were as confusing and made it as difficult to find basic commands as 2007. The fact that several companies have already come out with "classic view" add-ins for 2007 is a testement to MS's screwup. "Gordon" wrote: "Reba" wrote in message ...

Rubbish. Sorry, it's not very difficult OR time-consuming to learn as that. In fact I think you'll find that while SOME functions are slightly more difficult to find, the vast majority are EASIER to find....

OF course there was something new to learn with each version...but I'm not
willing to put up with the garbage of 2007 "splais" wrote: I hsave been using Office since it first came out back in windows 95 days.
