No kicking allowed for software or users... well maybe small (10D size) boots
in the rear section. The cleaneruper must've been the "magic". 07 is gone, 03
is back with full functionality, I'm a happy camper and will buy your potion
of choice if you ever hit the Denver, CO area. Thanks again!!

First thing to do is to uninstall all Office versions, run the utility, then
search your hard drive for any leftover folders that may have been over
looked (Office Shared is often overlooked).

Then reinstall your office 2003 suite, update it and kick the beta once hard
in the pants, after considering doing the same to yourself! ROTFL
