Have you tried inserting the Office 2007 cd/dvd and see if it detects 2003
evaluation and gives you the option to upgrade?
If it does then it will be removed during the upgrade

Dang - this lack of sleep is getting to me. I posted the correct KB article
for the "patch package" issue the OP says is keeping him from uninstalling
Office 2003.

BTW, the name is Milly eg

Pardon me, I read your claim of lack of sleep and so on, and I think it
really is affecting you -- or I'm just dumb (which is a distinct
possibility), but you not only posted the wrong URL, and admitted it, but
you failed to post the right URL too.

Actually, if you read my followup to Mr. Foldes, you will see that I
referred to my first post as having the correct URL.
