Default Uninstall 2007

The answer to both questions is yes.

First completely uninstall Office 2007. Also visit the Templates folder
(usually %appdata%\Microsoft\Templates) and remove any templates with
four-letter extensions ending in 'x' or 'm', because the Office 2003
programs can't use them.

There are several ways to install Office 2003 without an attached CD drive.
Using a flash drive is one; mapping a network drive to a shared CD drive on
a desktop computer is another.

Once you've installed Office 2003, you might want to download and install
the Compatibility Pack from
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...3-C6BB74CD1466
to let you open 2007-format documents you could receive from other users.

Our new netbook has Trial version of Word 2007. I don't want it.
Can I uninstall it and install my 2003 Word? The netbook does not
have a CD drive so I would copy the CD on to a Flash drive and
install it from there. Is this feasable? The netbook is Windows XP.
