Office 2007 beta uninstalled, Office 2003 missing

[jmwin]

Hello:

I installed Office 2007 beta and really enjoyed it. Since it expired today,
I followed the instructions and uninstalled Office 2007 beta, visited MS, and
I am in the process of downloading the trial version (which is painfully
slow, even with my broadband connection). I searched for Office 2003 through
Windows Explorer and couldn't find Word or Excel... Vision and Project are
the only two programs I have. Can anyone tell me what could have happened to
my Office 2003 apps? Thanks!

Best regards,

JM Wintons

When you installed the beta, did you elect to keep Office 2003? If not, then get out your installation disks and put it back. But if you are getting the 2007 trial, I would not bothre.
