You can remove Microsoft Office 2000 Suite editions and
stand-alone Office programs remotely with Microsoft Systems Management Server
or by other means. To remove a program or suite remotely, you need the
product's globally unique identifier (GUID). This article lists the GUIDs for
all Office 2000 suite editions and stand-alone Office programs.
Each Office Suite and stand-alone program has a globally
unique identifier (GUID). There are two forms of GUIDs: uncompressed (or
standard) and compressed. Compressed GUIDs are stored in the registry. You can
use the uncompressed GUID to identify the suite or program to be removed when
you are running the Windows Installer program.
Removing Programs or Suites
To remove a program or suite, run the following command with the
appropriate product GUID
msiexec.exe /x {guid}
where
GUID is the uncompressed GUID number inside
braces.
For example, the following command removes Microsoft Office
2000 Premium Edition without any further user interaction:
msiexec.exe /x {00000409-78E1-11D2-B60F-006097C998E7} /qn
If necessary, you can also create a log file during the removal.
To do this, append the following to the end of the command line:
/l*v C:\uninstall.log
