I have MS Office 2001 installed as a system 9 application on my G5. MS
Office System X test drive has expired, and I am not going to upgrade
soon. How do I disable the default that always opens the test drive
screen (and informs me that it has expired). When I click on an MS
file I want the MS Office 2001 to be the default program which opens
them. How do I change this?

To remove the Office v. X Test Drive:
1. Make sure you are logged on as an administrator. See Mac Help
for information on logging on as an administrator.
2. Quit any Microsoft Office programs that are running.
3. In the Finder, click Applications, double-click the Microsoft
Office X folder, and then double-click the Remove Test Drive icon.
4. Click Remove.
Note: After you run the Remove Test Drive program, you might notice the
following:
€ The Office v. X Test Drive does not appear in the Trash. To
display the Test Drive in the Trash, click the Trash icon on the Dock to
open it, close the Trash, and then click the Trash icon again. When the
Trash icon changes to indicate that items have been added to the Trash,
click Empty Trash on the Finder menu to permanently remove the Office v. X
Test Drive from your hard disk.
€ The Office v. X Test Drive still appears in the Applications
folder. To refresh the Applications folder so that the Office v. X Test
Drive does not appear in the folder, close the Applications folder, and then
open the Applications folder again.
Once you have removed the Office v. X Test Drive, you can install
Office v. X or the standalone versions (Word X, Entourage X, Excel X, and
PowerPoint X).
