Install Access 2007 after initial Office install.
In our organization we were not ready to switch to Access 2007 at the same time we were upgrading to Office 2007 so I originally created a package to deploy Office Enterprise 2007 to our company. Months later, we're now ready to upgrade from Access 2003 to Access 2007 but I'm having some issues with the upgrade.
I used the OCT initially and am trying to find a silent way to install just Access 2007 and remove Access 2003 without affecting our users much. I've "almost" got it. Instead of using the OCT again, I'm creating a custom .xml which does get Access 2007 installed but doesn't remove 2003. Is there something I can put in the xml to force uninstall or remove 2003? Here's what my xml looks like now: Code:
<Configuration Product="Enterprise"> <Display Level="none" CompletionNotice="yes" SuppressModal="yes" AcceptEula="yes" /> <PIDKEY Value="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" /> <USERNAME Value="User" /> <COMPANYNAME Value="Our Company" /> <!-- ################################################################ 2007 OFFICE SYSTEM INSTALL NEWER VERSIONS ################################################################ --> <!-- Remove Access 2003 --> <Setting Id="REMOVEPREVIOUS" Value="ACCESSFiles" /> <!-- Access --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="ACCESSFiles" /> <!-- Excel --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="EXCELFiles" /> <!-- Groove --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="GrooveFiles" /> <!-- InfoPath --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="XDOCSFiles" /> <!-- OneNote --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="OneNoteFiles" /> <!-- OneNote :: Integration :: Internet Explorer --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="OneNoteToIEAddin" /> <!-- OneNote :: Integration :: Windows Mobile devices --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="OneNoteMobile" /> <!-- Outlook --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="OUTLOOKFiles" /> <!-- PowerPoint --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="PPTFiles" /> <!-- Publisher --> <OptionState State="Absent" Children="Force" Id="PubPrimary" /> <!-- Word --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="WORDFiles" /> <!-- Visio Preview --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="VisioPreviewerFiles" /> <!-- Shared --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="SHAREDFiles" /> <!-- Shared :: Proofing :: Deutsch --> <OptionState State="Absent" Children="Force" Id="ProofingTools_1031" /> <!-- Shared :: Proofing :: Ukranian --> <OptionState State="Absent" Children="Force" Id="ProofingTools_1058" /> <!-- Shared :: Microsoft Office Download ActiveX control --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="TCDRegistration" /> <!-- Tools --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="TOOLSFiles" /> <!-- Tools :: System Information --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="MsInfoFiles" /> <!-- Tools :: Integration :: Office Server --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="OSESupp" /> <!-- Tools :: Integration :: Internet Explorer --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="RefIEBarFiles" /> <!-- Tools :: WebDAV --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="WebDriveFiles" /> <SetupUpdates CheckForSUpdates="Yes" SUpdateLocation="\\trusty\public\Office\Updates"/> <Setting Id="SETUP_REBOOT" Value="IfNeeded" /> </Configuration> |

Upgrading to Access 2007 After Initial Office Install 2003 Not Removed.
Did you figure this out? I have the same problem, except I created an MSP to add access, but I do have the option to remove Access 2003 selected but it is not removed.

Actually I did figure this out. It might be a little clunky but it works well. In our environment, we have Office 2007 Ent installed but we are using Access 2003. I was trying to remove Access 2003 and replace it with Access 2007. Here's how I did it:
I first wrote a batch file that will check for MSACCESS.EXE in the Office11 folder, which if exists will uninstall Office 2003 products. Once finished it will kick off the network-based install for Office 2007 calling the custom.xml I created that will only add Access 2007. I did not use an .MSP file. The batch file looks like this: Code:
@echo off color 17 title Microsoft Office Replacement Batch File echo . echo . echo Checking for older versions of Microsoft Office..... ping -n 5 127.0.0.1 >NUL if exist "%PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\MSACCESS.EXE" goto Uninstall goto Install :Uninstall cls echo Older version of Microsoft Office detected. ping -n 3 127.0.0.1 >NUL echo Let's get rid of that. ping -n 3 127.0.0.1 >NUL echo . echo . cls echo Uninstalling Office 2003. Please wait..... Start /wait Msiexec.exe /x {90110409-6000-11D3-8CFE-0150048383C9} /qr :Install cls echo Older version of Microsoft Office not detected. ping -n 3 127.0.0.1 >NUL cls echo We'll install Microsoft Office 2007. ping -n 3 127.0.0.1 >NUL echo . echo . echo Running Office 2007 Installer. Please wait..... Start /wait \\myserver\office\install\setup.exe /config \\myserver\office\install\customconfig.xml echo . echo . echo . cls echo All Done! You should restart your computer immediately! echo Press Enter to exit. Pause>nul Code:
Configuration Product="Enterprise"> <Display Level="basic" CompletionNotice="no" SuppressModal="yes" AcceptEula="yes" /> <PIDKEY Value="YOURPRODUCTKEYGOESHERE" /> <USERNAME Value="User" /> <COMPANYNAME Value="Our Company Name" /> <!-- ################################################################ 2007 OFFICE SYSTEM INSTALL NEWER VERSIONS ################################################################ --> <!-- Access --> <OptionState State="Local" Children="Force" Id="ACCESSFiles" /> <SetupUpdates CheckForSUpdates="Yes" SUpdateLocation="\\myserver\Office\Updates"/> <Setting Id="SETUP_REBOOT" Value="IfNeeded" /> </Configuration> |
