Script/SCCM Upgrade Office 2007 to Office 2010

There are a lot of ways to uninstall Office 2007 and install Office 2010, as well as many ways to combine them to effect an "upgrade".  Here's one I recently used that was clean, simple (ok, sort of simple) and reliable even when shoved through the entrails of SCCM advertisements onto XP and Windows 7 clients.  Note that the "custom.MSP" was created by using the Office Customization Toolkit.

Watch out for word-wrapping!

VBScript File
Rather than using the setup.exe or direct msiexec /x options for doing the uninstall, I just crack my Indiana Jones whip on WMI and let it do the uninstall.  Only problem is that the "Uninstall()" method doesn't wait.  So I had to insert a process termination monitor (below) to watch for when "setup.exe" finishes before continuing on.

Function LogDate()

FormatDateTime(Now, vbLongTime)

So when you call the .CMD script, it launches the .VBS script and checks for Office 2007 and (if found) uninstalls it, then returns to the .CMD script process to finish installing Office 2010.  So far, so good.  I hope this helps someone else out there.
