Uninstall trial verson Excel 2007
 
Hi, In october I got a new computer at work that came with a trial version of
Excel 2007 and Word 2007. The trial has since expired, and I decided to
simply upload my old verson of excel (and Office...) instead of buying the
new one. Now, whenever I try to open an existing excel document, it
automaticall opens with Excel 2007 (even when i tell it not to) or it tells
me that my file is not a Win 32 application.
How do I dump the trial version of Excel 2007 and get on with my life?

That will remove it from the add and remove list but It still opens as a
reader like program in addition you can't shut with task master.
