Uninstall Parts of Office

Office 2003

I am running short of disk space and rarely use Access, Publisher, or Power
Point and would like to uninstall them and leave only Outlook, Word, and
Excel. Add/Remove Programs has confusing wording. It has two choices.
Change Features or Remove Office. I chose Remove Office figuring the next
screen would ask which programs to remove. The next window just said
"Removing Office" so I wimped out. What are the correct choices to remove
some but not all Office programs?

Thanks in advance... Bob
