No, it's got all the wrappings, eye-candies etc., but, as far as I can
determine, it hasn't' got a hologram :-(
If it is a pirated version, it's a bloody good one! It is updating and
functioning very well in the Admin A/C and if I wouldn't use LUA we never
would have this exchange of messages.
If nobody can come up with a solution with respect to editing my LUA name
(refer to my post to DL) I proceed with wiping the HDD and re-install the
OS.

Afraid then that version is probably pirated. Do you have the hologram
from MS on the installation disk ??

I bought this version containing a valid key in Lao People's Democratic
Republic where I currently reside and work as a volunteer removing
explosives dropped by friendly folk from their B52's originating in Guam
some time ago. I am my own IT department and Educational Institution; I
have
a suitcase full of hats! (Apologies for the OT stuff).

Office 2007 Enterprise is a Volume License version and it is quite
difficult to remove. I suggest that you get in touch with the IT
department of the Company or the Educational Institution from where you
have purchased this version through the their Home Program.

If this is not a legal version then all I can tell you is to reformat
your
system to remove it .

If this was a Trial version which I doubt then read the release notes on
the steps needed for uninstalling this Enterprise version that came with
the download.

I tried to uninstall Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007 in:
'Add or Remove Programs' panel
and
by inserting the disk and activated the radio button next to 'Remove'.

Both attempts to uninstall were unsuccessful.

Verifiy you have sufficient permission to access the registry or
contact
Microsoft Product Support Services (PSS) for assistance. For
information
about to contact PSS,
see C:\Documents and Settings\Yvonne York\Local

I was able to locate C:\Documents and Settings\xxxx xxxx\Local
Settings\Temp\Setup00000238

but "PSS10R.CHM." is nowhere to be found.

I installed Office 2007 using a valid 25-character CD key and am the
administrator and should therefore have 'permission' to uninstall this
program.

The uninstall procedures as described in
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928218
are a bit too complicated for my liking.

Could somebody please please advise which registry setting should be
modified or any other procedure to facilitate proper removal of
Microsoft
Office Enterprise 2007.
TIA.

I believe the window & name details you refer to are for those that appear
in the file properties (author) of any doc you create, and as such amending
these details would'nt I believe have any impact on the user rights required
to run Enterprise.

Reading into the details of Enterprise & its requirements to run, it seems
to me that certain components of the program require full rights in order to
run, or at least their connection with other components.

Assuming this is your own PC & you are the sole user I dont really see any
problem with running Enterprise as an administrator, but thats just my view.

Wiping the HDD and reinstall the OS is on the agenda :-(

My day-to-day work is conducted in a Least-privileged User Account (LUA).
The only way I can access Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007 in LUA is via
the 'Run as...' option.

In hindsight I am pretty sure fouling up when installing Microsoft Office
Enterprise 2007.
I remember after that completion, in Admin A/C a window/panel popped up
indicating my surname 'York' on the top line and the initial 'Y' (of my
first name Yvonne) on the bottom line; I clicked OK and all is working in
this account.

In LUA the same panel popped up indicating my LUA name (which is
Yorkielady) on the top line. Since my LUA name is a single name and does
not have first name, I was surprised that the bottom line showed the
letter 'Y', so I deleted this letter from the bottom line and clicked OK.
This may have caused that I cannot access the program in LUA. Other than
uninstalling and reinstalling I have absolutely no idea as how to access
this particular window/panel in order to edit (add) the initial to the
bottom line.

Insert Office cd, select repair option, then run disk cleanup to remove
all temp files, reboot, try again.
If that doesn't work you are going to have to use the kb article, unless
you want to use the nuclear option.
(Format / reinstall)
BTW why do you want to uninstall?

Interesting. Why should the Enterprise version need higher level rights to
run properly compared to Standard version I wonder?

I would also suggest you get a KOSHER version.....
