Want to go back to MS Word 2003

[Globie2008]

Hello all,

I had previously downloaded a trial of the MS Suite 2007 but my trial has
expired. I would not like to purchase the suite. I am desparate to return
to the MS programs of 1997-2003 ASAP as I have documents to write.

How do I go back to MS the way it was before the trial!?

First, if you have any documents you created in Office 2007 formats that you
want to continue to use, use the Office button > Save As to save them in Office
97-2003 formats. The alternative, if you leave them in 2007 format, is to get
the Compatibility Pack for Office 2003 at

In Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs, select the Office 2007 trial and click
Remove. That will remove the programs, but not any documents.

Insert the disk for Office 2003 and install it. You'll need the 25-digit key
from the CD label, just as you did when you installed it the first time.
