You are right, it is under office tools. I did the custom install like you
suggested and made sure powerpoint, access, publisher, and visio viewer will
not being installed...not sure if it matters about the visio viewer and I
don't see anything else that would be related to the pro suite. The problem
has not gone away.

Office Basic contains Word, Excell, Outlook
If it contains Picture Manager I believe it will be located under Microsoft
OfficeOffice Tools
The MS Office site isnt very explicit.
When you install Office Basic, select custom install, or if allready
installed modify the installation, to add components, and check the various
options
You cannot install anything from the trial, as it will be installed as a
trial only.

OK, I tried to uninstall everything again and reinstall to see if I missed
something....same poroblem. The CD is called Microsoft Office Basic 2007
with Office Professional 2007 Trail. It says this suite contains Word
2007,
Excel 2007, and Outlook 2007......these all work fine. The problem is
with
MS picture manager, I was told it is included in all Office 2007 suites
but
it acts as if it is part of the pro suite only. Thanx for your help by
the
way, it is greatly appreciated....same with you JoAnn!!

Yeah, but I want to keep basic, just remove the trail of Pro.

Thats the thing, I tried to uninstall and reinstall but it
installs
the
pro
trail on its own. There is no option to tell it not to install
the
trial
of
pro and I can't uninstall the trial after the fact.
