I just installed Microsoft Office for the Mac Home and Student 2011. I intentionally purchased this version so I would not have Outlook. Not knowing that it would install a trial version of Outlook, I must have followed a standard install versus custom install path when I installed the Office suite.

How can I uninstall just Outlook, leaving the rest of the Office for Mac Suite (Word, Powerpoint, and Excel)? For any reason would it be best to uninstall the entire suite, and then reinstall the suite, this time being careful to uncheck any Outlook selection boxes?
 
I've just bought the same "Mac Office Home and student 2011" and on purpose dont want Outlook, but I have somehow installed it, but dont want it

Anyway to do the question above in the 1st post please? I dont want to uninstall the whole office, I want Word, Excel, Powerpoint

thanks
 
I believe that because office is installed as a package and not each part individually, you have no choice but to uninstall Office entirely and then re-install using the custom option. In the PC world you have the option of running install or uninstall/change, I have only see uninstall on the Mac.

Cheers, its what I had to do, what a episode it is to uninstall it all! MS has a doc, very manual way!

I then noticed the "customise" and just put Word, Excel, Powerpoint on
cheers
