Strange problem with MS Office 2007

[Cool Joe]

I've a strange problem with MS Ofice 2007. I can't type anything in MS Word, and all options are greyed out. This happens not only in Word, but also in other MS Office programs. Plz help....

[Sathish]

do you have genuine copy..?

i have also MS office 2007 without no problem..
pl check the activation details..

[comp@ddict]

Not that, genuine can't be a problem, cause itz only been a month since I got the original copy(before tht, using the ** version for 3 months)

Were u using trial version wich has expired now?

[Sathish]

yes i agree.

but some times pirated copy can be disabled the applications while the internet connection is up at the time of installations.

[comp@ddict]

Well, strange...letz see. what he replies..cause it din happen for me(using ahem copy)

[Cool Joe]

I'm using the 60 day trial which came with the Digit CD. And it hasn't been 60 days I think. If it had, then it would've notified me about it.

[skippednote]

Man it only happens when your trail is over
Same happened with but later got a original copy from a Friend...

[comp@ddict]

Well, sadly u dun live nerby( i wud hav given my *ahem* copy...)

[fatskin08]

Hmm, I suggest u uninstall it first and then reinstall it back again and see if you still got the same problem..

LoL *ahem* copy

You can always *ahem*rrent your copy to the OP.

[Cool Joe]

Of course, I know that reinstalling it will take care of the problem, just wanted to know if there was another way out. And I don't need the *ahem* copy, there's just a simple hack to make the trial version function like the full version.

[comp@ddict]

Ohh..was unaware of the hack...but my ahem has 2007+(dunno mabe xtra features)....

Well.....I waz nvr ever successful in finding cracks and keys to any program, genuineness kept me to it I guess

[dheeraj_kumar]

wow, lots of ahem ahem... benedril anyone?

Ho..shut..
pl go to word option>resources> my friend.

nothing has to be compared msoffice 2007..

[Cool Joe]

So no other option but reinstall?

[Cool Joe]

So I tried to uninstall.... I can't even uninstall it because when I try to, I get an error saying that some file is missing or corrupt.
I think Office isn't working due to this corrupt file. It doesn't even mention the name of the file so I can't fix it....

This page might help you to uninstall Office 2007 if you are not able to do it from "Add/Remove Programs":

[Cool Joe]

Thanks for the link Swatkat. I did almost all the steps. I just have to remove the registry keys now. I guess I'll do it later (it's a tedious job).

Thanks all

[swatkat]

Welcome! Hopefully that link will help you!

[gopi_vbboy]

use openoffice or msoffice2003..............the 07 ver sucks

[tuxybuzz]

exactly..openoffice is awesome..for word processing and all..but then impress cant match powerpoint..if its word processing openoffice..or even ABi Word..both rock..

[Cool Joe]

Yeah that's true. Write and Calc are decent programs but nothing can match Powerpoint.

In the last i want to tell you that Microsoft provides their office 2007 trial for only 60 clicks(Means after opening your office 60 time, your trial copy will be expire).
Keep in mind 60 days means not 2 month, but instead 60 clicks only.

Ya, this is principle is followed by some other softwares also...such tweakXP

But which is better 60days or 60clicks depends on usage

[Cool Joe]

Oh..... WTF....
