I had the same problem recently after installing Office on a new 12" aBook. I'm sorry that I forget exactly how I cleared it but I did not have to search for any preference file. I deleted the Office folder, either by trashing it or running a de-installer. Then I installed freshly.

Also, in my case the Extras installer failed to complete. It got near the end and then told me that some Microsoft folder was not found and the installation was cancelled.

It seems to me that almost everyone would buy Office at the special price along with a new aBook. So this is a bad flaw to have missed testing. I mean' all you have to do is take a computer and install Office, which is the first or only app someone would install.
