If you uninstalled the Trial & its Activation assistant after haveing
installed 2003, you may have to uninstall all of Office, reboot, then reinstall 2003 PS Ensure you dont have any trial of BCM still installed "matt" wrote in message ... Yes we worked that one out!

What is happening is, you did not uninstall Office '07 first -- the trial version comes pre-loaded and you have to get rid of it even if you don't activate it. You have to get rid of the Activator too. Because you left it there, the icon you click is expecting to find DLL files for '07 but is finding them of '03 instead. Uninstall Office '07 and the Activator utility, then reinstall Office '03 if it does not run properly. |

installing office 2003 for windows vista
I will add to this thread because my situation seems to be similar in some
aspects. I had Office 2003 on my pc but had never activated 2007. I recently tried to activate it but it kept telling me it was completely installed. So I went on line to download another trial version - same thing. Now I can't uninstall either version from my pc. It says something is missing or Windows will search for a solution that it can't uninstall. Any idea what's going on? I just spent over a hundred bucks for Office 2007 and it won't load either.

I don't understand why anybody would migrate to Office '07. Office '03 is a
better product. MSoft even realizes that there is a huge legacy base of '03 users that will not want to move up to '07, and there will be '07 users that will not save their work in an '03 format, so MSoft has a patch that lets '03 users open '07 files.
