Uninstall office 2008 - No version of office found?

[Scotty_V]

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Intel

I've been having problems with my office install for a while now, it just refuses to update, saying the version of office required for the update isn't available.

So i decided to uninstall the whole thing and reinstall it. However, the remove office app doesn't find any versions of office on my system :S Even though it's quite clearly there.

I'm on snow leopard, but had these problems before i upgraded, too.

Any ideas how i can remove it completely and reset everything so i can install it properly from scratch?

I am using a legal OEM distribution of Office 2008.

I've run into this a few times, and, honestly, I can not remember what ultimately I did to fix the problem. This article helped:
