Evia,
when you created the MSP file from the media the defaults are to install all the products and overwrite existing applications.
I am in the process of doing the package for our uses installing office core elements (Word,Excel,Powerpoint & Outlook) and then having additional installations for Access and Publisher.
To do this i copied the files to a temp folder on the PC and ran through the setup.exe /admin created my first MSP from the proplus option then by adding the Org details licence key and under what to install removing everything but the 4 core installs i then saved this to a folder called custom and repeated the steps launching the setup.exe /admin and selecting the access and publisher configs to be configured and saved them in the custom folder.
within the proplus.ww folder there is config.xml in thre you can remove the comments from the following:
<Display Level="none" CompletionNotice="no" SuppressModal="yes" AcceptEula="yes" />
<Setting Id="Reboot" Value="NEVER" />
repeat with the access.ww and publisher.ww folder config files
this will install it silently when used with the correct switches
in my case the install was c:\acp\setup.exe /adminfile c:\acp\custom\core.msp /config c:\acp\proplus.ww\config.xml
access was the same but use the access.msp and the access.ww folder for the config.xml
to remove office use c:\acp.setup.exe /uninstall proplus /config c:\acp\proplus.ww\config.xml
this will use the silent switch to uninstall the application as well.
where it says /uninstall <product ID> in my case proplus you need to change depending on what you want to uninstall the id can be found from the setup.xml file from the folder you want to remove. IE access.ww\setup.xml says access publisher infopath etc
hope this small guide helps you and anyone else who comes across it.
One thing i am still looking in to is office requires a reboot after uninstalling it tho i think an extra line in config.xml will do the trick Setting ID SETUP_REBOOT = "NEVER" seems to be working during my testing!
