Maybe you have a trial version of Office 2003 or 2007, and the trial
period has ended. Or maybe you have not activated your Office software.

What happens if you start Word 2003 and click on Help | Activate
Product, or if you start Word 2007 and click on Office Button | Word
Options | Resources | Activate? If you are already activated, a dialog
box saying so will appear. If you are not activated, the Activation
Wizard will start. If you have an expired trial version, a dialog box
will prompt you to enter a valid product key or convert (purchase a key)
online.

If you have an expired trial version, then you cannot reinstall the free
trial software to extend the free trial period.

All of my Microsoft office programs are not working. In Word I can't even
type onto a blank page. It will not allow me to change a document, save a
new document as all of the buttons to "Save As", etc. This is the same for
Excel and for Microsoft Outlook. In Outlook I cannot reply to any emails as
the reply button is the light grey instead of being black so I can use it.
All the other buttons to save or copy are the same.

I tried wiping Office from my computer by deleting it and then did a
reinstall but when it came back all my previous documents were in there so I
know it did not wipe and the problems are still there.

How do you WIPE Office so you can do a reinstall of it?

Thank you,
