I was in the same situation. Microsoft installs its apps in a nested folder in your Applications folder, so Candybar doesnt see them. You can either move them out of their "Microsoft Office" folder, or you can manually "get info" for each app, and paste the icon onto the existing one. Or you can use Pixadex to do them individually.

The easiest way to change icons is IMHO to install FinderIconCM from www.pixture.com - it's a contextual menuitem. With a few clicks it's done. Just copy and paste.
