Darren -----Original Message----- From: "Roger Bayne" <rbayne@xxxxxxxxxx> To: gptalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: 10/17/2008 11:28 AM Subject: [gptalk] I have installed office 2003 with a GPO and a custom MST file. The only thing the MST does is Publisher from being installed. I am uninstalling Office 2003 by disassociating the computer object with the GPO. I watch Office 2003 being removed. However office still shows up in add and remove programs and if a user has a program shortcut on their desktop for one of the office 2003 products and they start the shortcut, it reinstalls that product. 1. How do I get office to be removed completely? 2. If there are pieces that are left, how do I get the shortcut to stop reinstalling the product? Thanks Roger L.
