Using the Microsoft Office Installer to Remove Office

You can use the Microsoft Office Installer to remove the main Office 98 program files from your computer. The Microsoft Office Installer does not remove any of your document files, custom templates, System Folder items, or Value Pack components.

To use the Microsoft Office Installer program to remove Office 98 from your computer, follow these steps:

1. Insert the Microsoft Office CD into the CD-ROM drive.

2. Open the Office Custom Install folder.

3. Double-click Microsoft Office Installer.

4. Click Remove in the list box.

5. Click the hard disk on which Microsoft Office 98 Macintosh Edition is installed in the Install Location list.

   NOTE: If you have moved or renamed the Microsoft Office 98 folder, you need to click Select Folder in the Install Location list box, then select your Office 98 folder. If you fail to do this, Office 98 will not be removed from your computer.

6. Click Remove to begin the remove operation.

7. Click OK in the dialog box that indicates the remove operation was successful.

8. Click Quit to close the Microsoft Office Installer.
