<check type="registry" condition="exists" path="HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenOffice.org\OpenOffice.org\2.2\{E4C7B3EF-B3DB-4BB6-A812-E8FAE47534D3}\INSTALLLOCATION" />
The long hexnumber ist is the Uninstall-ID (see below). This always works, also with minorversion updates.
The uninstall ID can be checked from the file ''setup.ini'' in the directory ''OpenOfficeorg 2.0 Installation Files''
------
User Note: I tried this out and found that it didn't add the short cuts in the start menu... instead it was on the root of C:. So I'm currentily currently trying
"OpenOffice.org 2.0 Installation Files\setup.exe" /quiet" for the install. But the above remove script seems to work well
== Customizing ==
According to the [[http://documentation.openoffice.org/setup_guide2/2.x/en/SETUP_GUIDE.pdf OpenOffice.org 2 setup guide]], you can customize an automated installation using Microsoft's [[http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/255905/EN-US/? Orca]] tool.
However, certain customizations are possible without Orca. For example, [[http://www.appdeploy.com/packages/detail.asp?id=497 AppDeploy.com]] gives the tip for making OpenOffice.org the default program for Microsoft Office file types:
msiexec /qb! /i openofficeorg20.msi ALLUSERS=1 SELECT_WORD=1 SELECT_EXCEL=1 SELECT_POWERPOINT=1
 
See the new documentation [http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/How_Tos/Automatic_Installation_on_Windows Automatic Installation on Windows at the OpenOffice.org Wiki] for a detailed documentation of all the MSI properties.
