Hi
I had installed MS Office 2007 Trial, after a few days I uninstall it and Install Office 2003 Professional, but everytime I start any office application it starts searching for the office 2007 setup files, and I need to click on cancel 4-5 times.
Please let em know how to resolve this issue.

it starts searching for the office 2007 setup files

Uninstallation may not be a proper one.

one trick would be installing O2007 again fully, then using an admin account to run the un-installer to remove the Office 2007 completely from the system :)

Thanks Choto for your reply. At the time of uninstallation the uninstaller didn't work properly and so I follow the guide as given by MS people in the following link :

*support.microsoft.com/kb/928218

Then I install Office 2003. So, now let me know how can I get rid of that, I had also reinstalled and uninstall the office 2007 and then again install office 2003, but it doesn't help.

Uninstall both from an admin account, run a registry cleaner, clean your drives, and then install whatever office you want.
