Dear Jerry,

Welcome to the forum.

From your description, it seems that you want to clear the Office for Mac applications' credentials in Mac Keychain.

If yes, you can follow the following steps.

a. Search for and open Keychain.
b. In the search field, enter adal.
c. Select all items whose type is MicrosoftOffice15_2_Data:ADAL:<GUID>, and then press Delete.(Please note that the two Office credential caches must be hidden. To unhide the 2 caches, click on "show visible items" in the "Keychain" menu top bar (keychain -> view -> "show visible items") Once the hidden items are visible, search for "Office" and you will see below 2 items listed.)
d. In the search field, enter office.
e. Select the items that are named Microsoft Office Identities Cache 2 and Microsoft Office Identities Settings 2, and then press Delete. In some situations, they are Microsoft Office Identities Cache 3 and Microsoft Office Identities Settings 3.
f. Quit Keychain Access.

If something is misunderstood, welcome to share your updates at your convenience.

Best Regards,

Cliff
