I apologize in advance, but I have searched similar topics to this, but I haven't seen an answer yet that describes where and how to accomplish this.  I'm also a bit new to SCCM and I'm still finding the nuances.

Scenario:  Running SCCM 2012 SP1.  Office 2013 32bit is added as an application and deployed properly with an accompanied .msp file stored in the source folder.  The configuration is to have Office 2010 uninstalled silently.  The deployment runs flawless and the user doesn't know otherwise.  Success in anyone's book, right?

Except... Office 2010 Tools and SharePoint Workspace 2010 are left over.  Manual uninstallation is not an option.  This is for hundreds of PC's in several global locations. 

I've seen it hinted to write a script.  That's fine I suppose, but what do I write, where do I store the script, and can I have SCCM2012 automatically run it before the installation of 2013? 

Our favorite IT tool Google hasn't quite returned what I'm looking for.   Does anyone here have ideas or perhaps have experienced a similar issue?

Thanks,

1st, save the following content as a XML file on a server share, named as "config.xml".

<Configuration Product="ProPlus">
<Display Level="none" CompletionNotice="no" SuppressModal="yes" AcceptEula="yes" />
<Setting Id="SETUP_REBOOT" Value="Never" />
</Configuration>

Run the following script during or before the installation of Office 2013:

"C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE14\Office Setup Controller\setup.exe" /uninstall ProPlus /config \\servershare\Config.xml

Thanks for the reply, Max.

You say to run the script before the deployment, but what about during?  Is that what you mean?  

Would I run that script in the detection method section?  I know that's not what it is intended for, but I don't see anywhere else where a script can be run through an SCCM application deployment.

Thanks,

I would like to know this too. I am fairly new to SCCM and I can get it to deploy office 2013 and remove most of office 2010 but like the original poster I have some 2010 stuff left behind. I have an XML similar to the suggestion 2 posts up but I guess I am not running it right cause here I am looking for answers.  I originally followed this guide:

then after I saw that the office tools and sharepoint workspace for 2010 I started looking again and found this article and found a comment by KevinViolette that I tried as well and it did not help

does anyone know what I am doing wrong??? office 2013 installs fine but it just will not remove the office 2010 tools and I am pulling whats left of my hair out truing to figure out why.
