[wpkg-users] Office 2003 uninstall problem

[mattmole]

Hi have tried adding a space between /x and {*}. This seems to have made a
difference. Although now the installation fails with a different message,
and the machines end up in an infinite reboot cycle.

I have just added Office2003 back into the profile as a temporary "fix". I
will investigate this further another day.

The key used in the msiexec line is the correct one, as I got it from the
registry, and run manually office 2003 will uninstall.

Thanks for the ideas!
