Office 2007 ruined 0ffice 2003

SuZu · 06-17-2007, 10:40 AM

I downloaded a limited time trial version of office 2007 some 60+ days ago from the official Microsoft site. At the end of the trial period, I decided not to purchase and using the add/delete programs function, deleted it. Now my Office 2003 seems to be corrupted. It will not load correctly and keeps asking for a .cab file. The Office 2003 version was ordered with our Dell computer when it was bought through Costco. I have been told the only cure for this is the original installation disc, which I do not have. How can I fix this without buying Office 2007. Why did it corrupt by Office 2003 -- I have downloaded trial versions several times without having the original program end up unusable.

It outlines how to replace lost, broken, or missing Microsoft software or hardware.

Thanks, Jack. I'll try that. For a pirate you've been most helpful.
