office installed, not recognized when opening email attachments

Hi,

I'm running Mac OSX 10.4.6, it had some trial version of office on it.
So I went out and bought Office 2004 and installed it. It works. The
problem is when someone e-mails me an office file... I click to open
the file and it pops up an option to Buy office and tells me my license
is expired. What can I do to point all apps to the correct office
installation?

Thanks

Click to expand...

It looks lile you didn't properly uninstall the Trial version of
Office. The cleanest way to correct this would be to use the Office
UNinstaller to remove it all and then to reinstall Office.
