I have this weird bug in MS Office.
My powerbook came with MS Office X Test Drive, I found
this quite useless so I purchased a student version MS
Office 2004 (Yeah I know, please don't make fun of me for
buying MS software). I uninstalled the Test drive version in
user mode and as root. Then I installed the new Office,
now every time after roughly 4 to 5 uses I get a "Licence
error" that User Test Drive is using an instance
something or other of Office and that my Licence doesn't cover
that and I am forced to shutdown Office. This is really
annoying. What can I do about it.

Oh, I need Office for compatibility reasons. I normally use
OpenOffice so don't tell me to use that.
And please don't tell me that MS software shouldn't be
bought, only downloaded and cracked or any of that sh#t
like everyone around me is saying.

Thanks very much for any help

mm...ms sucks!!

just kidding...uninstall both office .... reinstall office...make
sure you use the unsintall icon on both office.

adios amigo

Hey, no shame in buying MS Office - I actually think it's one of their better products, and a lot of us need it for compatibility with work-related documents anyway.

See if this helps:

If not, since you paid for your copy you could even try MS tech support ;)
