Office 2007 vs Office 2007

Hi

I've currently got Office 2007 on trial from Microsoft which is just about to run out. I also have just bought the full version. If I install the full one, will it get confused as there's already one there and "go all weird"?

    If you are worried about it, why not uninstall the trial version, re-start the pc and then install the paid-for version?

    I remember I had to do that for someone with Office 2003. Installing the full version wasn't enough as it only loaded the "trial" but as said, just uninstall the trial.

    Uninstall it first, there were quite a few problems when the older beta's were left on before installing the full version, so to be sure, get rid of the trial first, then install the full version.
