Removing Licensing Info: office 2004 mac

Hi Folks.

I'm new to the usergroup, so please forgive any mistakes in advance in
posting...

I'm trying to remove licensing info. for MS Office 2004 for Mac. Have done
this before, but for some reason I can't get it to work this time. I'm
doing the following:

Disconnet internet
Quite all MS programs
Open Remove Office Tool
Hold Option key & Click "Remove licensing info only"
Click "Remove" in window that appears
Wait...
Close window and Quit.

(I get a message "No files were removed or deleted from your computer")

But when I go to load MS program again, I am not given an option to re-enter
licensing information.

Any tips?

Thank you,
Oren Sofer

Sorry, but this newsgroup is for questions about security in Access, the
database product that's part of Office Professional.

Access is not part of Office for Mac, so most of the people here aren't
familiar with Macs.

You'd be best off reposting your question to a newsgroup related to Office
for Mac. There are two that I'm aware of: microsoft.public.office.mac and
microsoft.public.mac.office. I'm not sure what the difference is, nor which
one if more active.
