how do i convert a microsoft word 2007 trial back to word 2003?
I borrowed my friends computer last night to finish my computer and when I
tried to open it from my email on her computer it would not because she had Microsoft Word 2003 so it gave me the option of converting to Microsoft 2007 so now her whole Microsoft Office is 2007 under a trial and I don't know how to fix it. Any suggestions? I was going to bring her computer up to the computer lab tomorrow, but her main concern is that she won't lose her files if 2007 was uninstalled or that she would have to pay $500 for the microsoft package. Can you please help? |

Don't ever ask to borrow my computer!
All depends on whether you allowed the conversion to add to or replace Office 2003. If the former, uninstal the trial from control panel add or remove programs, locate and run winword.exe from the folder C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11 and repair it from the Help menu to restore the changed registry entries. If that doesn't fix it you could try rolling back Windows from System restore to a time before you cocked it up. Otherwise you will have to reinstall Office 2003 from the original installation disc. Your ex-friend's documents will not have been affected unless you screw them up too You could have downloaded the 2007 compatibility pack for 2003 http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/pr...686761033.aspx and saved yourself a lot of grief. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org helpp!!!!!!!!!!!! wrote: I borrowed my friends computer last night to finish my computer and when I tried to open it from my email on her computer it would not because she had Microsoft Word 2003 so it gave me the option of converting to Microsoft 2007 so now her whole Microsoft Office is 2007 under a trial and I don't know how to fix it.

*Never* install, upgrade, delete, or tweak something on another person's
computer without his/her expression approval. You'd better hope she has the disks and the product key. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "helpp!!!!!!!!!!!!" wrote in message ...
