Hi there, hope this post is in the right spot. Well, I have just installed MS Office 2011 (OS X Lion, Imac 27 inch mid 2011). The installer did not give the opportunity to choose the programs to be installed and, considering the fact that I just want Excel and Word, what should I do to uninstall all other programs (Outlook, Messenger, Power Point and Document Connection) ? Thanks in advance, LBM

You must have missed it then because the Office 2011 installer very definitely gives you the choice of a "custom" install. If you didn't select the custom installation it will install everything.
As far as I know, there is no way as there is with the Windows version to separately uninstall Office apps or to even add them once the program has been installed. I believe you will have to remove everything and reinstall only those apps you need. (Unless someone else has a better method.)

A lot of work. For what it is worth just ignore them. Drag Word and Excel icons to the Dock and use from there.
