We have our Microsoft Office Pro Plus and Standard volume license and are
upgrading our computers. We rolled out about 100 using a Perl script, but the
issue becomes when it finds multiple MSO installations, it then installs BOTH
Pro and Std.
We have various configurations of MSO 2000, XP and 2003. As with many other
companies, sometimes MSO STD will be installed over an earlier version of MSO
Pro, leaving remnants of the Pro version(such as Access) on the computer to
never be upgraded.
When creating one installation point, the installation needs interaction
from the user to decide which to install. Obviously, if the user has the
choice, they will install the Pro version. The rest of the installation is
completely silent.
The question becomes, is there a way for setup (or batch file, etc.) to look
at the installed programs and determine which ONE to install?
