Office 2007 B2TR "will not go away"
roy-w 3/18/2007 8:31:11 AM
I've tried everything to uninstall the B2TR refresh for Office 2007
Professional AND Office 2007 Professional Visio including removing all of
Office 2003 as well. The system "shows" no presence of Office, all
files/folders deleted and the registry allegedly shows no presence, yet
installing a NEW version of Office 2007 (full new release) fails as it will
not "upgrade" a beta version???

A separate install for Office 2007 Visio Standard (full new release) fails
for the same reason.

There are no options on the installs, they just fail and "disappear".
Microsoft offer no help as far as I can see unless I pay £50 to get their so
called technical help.

Has anybody else had this problem, if so, could they tell me what I'm
missing so I can install the products and do some work!!!!

Thanks.

No, you didn't try everything as there have been hundreds if not thousands of posts about this issue and they all are available by searching the archives of this group.

I am far from perfect but I am diligent and do my homework first before asking anything.

The moral of this story being "if you have a problem then do as much research
as you can, and when for whatever reason you have failed to come up with an
answer and you seek advice in all good faith, remember that whilst you may be
fortunate enough to receive the advice you were looking for you it may well
be accomppanied by the derision of a bigot".

If you ever have a question on the IBM Developer or Java Developer sites you
will see a more "professional" form of help.

Why are you calling her a bigot? That's completely out of line! If you don't
agree with her comment, fine. But to turn around call her an ugly name shows
ignorance on your part.
