[mso] Re: How do I change (delete) company name on splash screens?

I thought Office particularly 2000 Professional let each programme within it 
change the user.

Word : Select Tools menu Options and User Information tab insert new company 
here.

Excel: Select Tools menu Options and General tab insert new company against 
User Name.

Powerpoint: Select Tools menu Options and General tab insert new company here.

It may well apply to Office Icon too?

Give it a go.

Mike
