Uninstalling Office 97

[MikeR-Oz]

How do I uninstall Office 97 professional - I have tried
to do this by contol panal / addremove/ and I am then
prompted to insert cd 1 - which I no longer have as I
have installed Office XP and wish to remove older
software - Can I get around this glitch?

Thanks Mike - But the way I read this is that the utility
is used after the
setup program is run first - When I add/remove office 97
it asks for the CD
which I do not have - how do I uninstall Office 97 without
this cd ??- I
wish to leave my OfficeXP on there.
