Problem Office 2003 pre installed on computer

Help! Office 2003 Basic came pre installed on my
computer. I am still running Office 2000 Small Business
Edition with Access 2000 added later. I keep getting a
Visual Basic Error when I try to work in my Office 2000
SBE. I thought I had the Office 2003 removed or disabled
from the computer. When I click OK after I get the error
notice then I can go ahead and work. How can I get rid
of this problem. My computer is HP Pavilion and I did
not get a CD it is installed in a hidden part of the hard
drive.

Lee Ann,
Did you remove the trial version of Office 2003 from Add / Remove Programs?
There may be some files remaining on your machine. Look at this article:
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;290301
It may help you remove any remaining files from the Office 2003 version.
If you modified any of your files in Office 2003 and are trying to access / modify them thru Office 2000, this also may be a source of your problem.
If you use the cleanup utility, be sure to backup any relative / pertinent files before use.
Also you should contact your system mfg and request / demand all cd's for software installed on your computer.
