Completely uninstall office 2002 and 2003

Posted: 14 Jun 2004 01:05 PM PDT

I'm trying to find a program or a process to completely uninstall office 2002 and 2003. When you uninstall office, it leaves behind a bunch of objects in the registry, and in your settings. I know that office 2000 had a program (earaser2k) that would remove most of the leftover objects from the programs, and I was wondering if there was a similar program for office 2002 and 2003, or if there is a list of registry objects that I need to remove. Thanx!

I should have added, do you really need to install 'all Office2K'?

Its_Meshelle,
Yes name the company so anyone who reads these posts can benefit.
We have been extremely pleased with Dell"s online support for our notebooks.
It might be eaiser to start an email support issue with "H". This way you have documentation and a support # to backup you up.
Might take just a tad bit longer, and you may get better results.

Unable to Access Cliparts on Disk

Posted: 13 Jun 2004 01:55 PM PDT

Does the Small Business package include Publisher? The PUB60COR folder is
part of Microsoft Publisher. If it wasn't installed using the setup
program, its clips will not show up.

On the clip art task pane, there are two dropdown boxes, "Search for" and
"Search in". Are all of the checkboxes in each dropdown checked?

wingdng2 error on setup

Posted: 13 Jun 2004 07:46 AM PDT

And also note that Office 2000 CDs are no longer carried by Microsoft so the
only way is to find an online seller or an auction.

Office 03 slipstream patches help

Posted: 13 Jun 2004 06:14 AM PDT

Brian Roberson <nospam.noneya.org> wrote: 

Are you using the larger, full patches that are made for patching the admin install points? There are the binary (diff) patches that require the source media (or a LIS cache on the client), and then there are the full patch files that do not require the source. The full patch is what you need. These can be used to patch an admin install point created by running setup /a OR they can be used to patch a client PC that does not have the source media or LIS. Do not run the patches from CD (or other read-only media).

Partitions for two versions of Word

Posted: 11 Jun 2004 05:26 PM PDT

If you wish to avoid the "now installing" prompt each time you switch
versions of Word, installing on a second OS partition or in a Virtual PC
session makes sense. Personally, I would use a VPC session.

So, if I understand you correctly, you appear to think that Windows *98* was

How can Windows 98 (released in, erm, 1998) have been released /after/
Windows 2000 (released in, erm, 2000)?!

Not a lot of thought went into that post, obviously...

network/ server version of Office?

Posted: 11 Jun 2004 01:51 PM PDT

I am not a Microsoft representative. The MVP is a designation I earned for
past contributions to news groups, both here and in Outlook groups.

As for a network friendly version of Office, it is a local program, not
suited for networking. You can perform an administrative installation and
install locally from that point or you can use Terminal Services.

Please explain what you mean by a "network friendly version" then - do you
mean where the application is installed on the network and people can open
applications without having the program installed locally? That would be
terminal services. If you mean something else, please explain. I am not
being argumentative, just curious as to what you mean by your statement.

For future reference (and perhaps this one currently) you can contact
Microsoft about product features you would like to see in future versions -
com and put Office in the subject line. Microsoft does
read these mails and has a database they keep to track the most often
requested features. That is how Calendar Coloring finally rose to the top
for Outlook.

Did I already suggest a new mail profile? Renaming MAPI32.dll to .old and
then run fixmapi.exe?
