Office 2007 trial version screwed up my 2003 Pro

[konnielee]

HELP!! I installed the Office 2007 trial on my work computer, then uninstalled it.
Now my Office 2003 Pro doesn't work. I don't know where the original CD is.
What do I do?

What's the error message it gives you?

Wasn't a smart thing to do then was it. Do you own a 2003 Office key??

[konnielee]

When 2003 tries to open, I am missing files.

How did you uninstall 2007? by using revo uninstaller? It might have deleted part of 2003 by mistake.

Try doing a repair, sometimes when you use the uninstaller (the built in one, not REVO), it will allow for a repair, see if 2003 can do that, and if so, use that.

Thanks, I will try that. Sorry about the pm.

First and foremost, if you don't know/have the Office 2003 Pro key with you now, try to use a keyfinder program to see if it's still stored in the registry...if you're lucky enough take note of it (copy it onto somewhere else) and then download Office 2003 Pro from a torrent site (most will be pirated but try to find one that isn't pre-cracked but comes with a pirated key instead.) Install it and then use the key to re-register Office 2003 so that it's genuine...

You will definitely need to reinstall Office 2003 because when you uninstalled Office 2007, some of the files that are shared with each other are being removed.
