Upgrade Office 2003 Professional to Office Professional Plus 2007

Hi

We currently use Office 2003 Pro. and I am preparing to upgrade to Office
Professional Plus 2007. All our current Office 2003 installations was made
manually, before I joined the company, but I would like to do the upgrade
through a GPO. My plan was to customize the Office 2007 installation so that
the Office 2003 installation will be completely uninstalled. I have created a
..MSP file but can't see how I can install Office 2007 through a GPO since I
am missing a setup.msi, I only have a .MSI package for each Office product.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I have just tried to install Office 2003 Pro through a GPO (Deployment Type:
Assigned) to a test computer and it worked perfectly, but when I afterwards
want to install Office Professional Plus 2007 I run in to trouble. When I do
the Office 2007 installation I tell it to remove old Office versions, but
when the installation is complete all the icons for Office 2003 is still on
the computer and if I want to open an .XLS file it doesn't do it in Excel
2007 but it starts to configure Excel 2003.
I can find Office 2003 in "Add/Remove Programs" and I can remove it from the
list but it doesn't change the fact that it still starts to configure Excel
2003 when opening an .XLS file.

Is this normal behavior because the program was assigned through a GPO?
