Microsoft Office 2007 customize installation
Hi Debra,
During the installation you have many options where you can choose to install your Microsoft Office individually. Typically, when you first install office 2007 it install automatically if you just click always "yes" on the process I'm sure you install the whole feature of the office including Word, Excel and Outlook etc.
If you have existing office program in your PC. try to remove unnecessary features by following this steps:
1. Click Start.
2. Control Panel.
3. Add and Remove Programs.
4. Select the program you want to remove features and click continue.
Thanks,
Ken

Hello Debra Venhaus,
To install only Excel, Word Outlook and PowerPoint in ms office 2007 pro, you will have to customize the installation. Use the following procedure:
Just obtain you disk that has Microsoft Office 2007 and insert it into the optical drive of your computer to begin the installation.
Hoping you have the product key, enter it in the appropriate field and click "Continue" and then accept the agreement and again press "Continue."
In next window, look for "Customize" and click on it, and then select the tab "Installation Options" so that a list of programs included in the Microsoft Office package will be displayed.
And thereafter you will be required to right-click on each program in the list except Microsoft Word, outlook, Excel and PowerPoint. Done that, you will then select the option "X Not Available" from the menu which will omit them from the installation.
You will then click the "Install Now" button and then continue with the setup till it finishes.

Microsoft Office 2007 customize installation
If you installed the full Microsoft Office 2007 suite, removing or uninstalling the applications you don’t want to use would be easy. You simply need to modify the installation from the Control Panel. To remove the applications you don’t want to use, click “Start”, “Control Panel” then “Add or Remove Programs”. In the Add or Remove Programs screen, scroll down and select Microsoft Office 2007 then click “Change”.
On the next screen, make sure “Add or Remove Features” is selected then click “Continue”. In the Installation Options screen, set all applications that you don’t want to use to “Not Available”. You should now see a red “X” before the application’s name indicating that the application is not available or will be removed if it is still installed.
When you are finished setting the applications, click “Continue” then follow the instructions. And that’s it.
