reinstallation

[garysharow]

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Processor: Intel Hi,

I have a suspicion that an uninstall and reinstall of office might resolve some problems my computer is having. I bought office for mac on disc, which I still have, but does anybody know if I would be better reinstalling it from the website in order to get the fully updated version from fresh?

Oh...and if so, do you know how I do this?

Thanks all

Unfortunately, the best remains to uninstall using the uninstaller, then
reinstall from the CD.
The good thing is that the Auto-updater allows you to use some Combo
update so that you don't have to reinstall every single little update
one after the other.

The installer that is available for the Trial copy cannot use your CD key.
You would have to purchase it in order to use it.
