Hold down on the old icon in the dock you will see options then click remove.
Open the new application while it is open the icon will be in the dock hold down on that icon and select keep in the dock.

I tried this and it didn't work. The icon also shows with the program in the finder window and that shows back on the dock when I opened it back up.

I fixed this. I ended up going to Office's Application support folder and the other apps folder and deleting them and deleting Office and the other app. Office deleted ok but the other one wouldn't let me because it said that was still in use. Rebooted and then tried to delete the other app and it worked. All's well.
