Uninstall multiple copies of Office XP

R

Rob

I currently have Office XP Pro installed on several
hundred computers and will be upgrading to Office 2003
Standard. I am reviewing options to be able to push images
out through the network, but it will not be ready in time
to meet our deadline.
I would like to remove the components that are no longer
used (such as Front Page) via a script before installing
Office 2003.
My questions are:
A) Can you remove one component with a script?
B) Do you have an example of such a script?
C) Are there issues with removing parts of Office?

Thanks,
Rob

I know that Office XP cam with a utility to clean off older
versions netirely or in part. I suspect Office 2003 has a
similar utility. It buried several directories deep. It
was called offcln.exe with Office XP. I'd network the
image if such a removal utility exists in Office 2003 as
well and run it on each machine from there.
