Scripting of Office Removal and Install

Asked by Sharpio in Windows Batch Scripting, Microsoft Office Suite

Tags: , , ,

Hello all.

I am trying to uninstall Office 2003 and install Office 2007 using a startup script.  When I run the script from a command window, everything works fine.  However, when I assign the script using GP to my test system, the only thing that happens are the Office 2007 icons getting tossed into Start-All Programs-Microsoft Office.  Office 2003 does not get removed, and the Office 2007 install starts only after clicking on one of the Office 2007 icons.  I would like the script to remove 2003, and fully install Office 2007 before giving the user a chance to login.  I've attached the script, please let me know what I need to do to get this running.

Note:  I have given NTFS and Share permissions (read / write) to Everyone, Domain Computers, System, and Authenticated Users to the directories listed in the script.Start Free Trial
