Default Reinstalling Word

Hi, I have searched the forum for my problem, but I haven't found an answer.
Hoping someone can help.

I installed Word 2003 about a month ago. Few weeks ago (which I also asked
the forum for help with this stupid problem I caused), I inadverdently
created a macro and used the PF9 key to store a function that I do
repeatedly. The PF9 key is the refresh key that I always used for refreshing
my TOC.

Yesterday I uninstalled word (from Control/Add-Remove Programs feature) and
reinstalled the Word 2003 all over. However, I realized that it didn't
override or do a fresh install. When I launched word (after reboots, etc.)
Pf9 key was still working with my own macro setup.

How can I do a complete fresh reinstall of Word? Any suggestions I would so
appreciate. Thanks.

Default Reinstalling Word

Keyboard customizations are usually stored in Word's Normal.dot
template. Normal.dot is not usually deleted when you uninstall
Office. With Word closed, locate your Normal.dot file as
described in Method 1 in
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...ocNotBlank.htm , and
rename it to Normal.old. When you start Word again, Word will
create a new Normal.dot template. If desired, you can copy
customizations from your old Normal.dot to the new Normal.dot by
clicking on the Organizer tool in Tools | Templates and Addins.
