Apparently the Add/Remove Programs applet will auto-detect an installation and 
invoke install mode, but I'd change it manually just to make sure

Subject: [NTSysADM] Q about install Office 2010 on Citrix Presentation Manager 
4.58
Sent: 18 Jun 2013 19:58

We have a Citrix Presentation Manager 4.58 farm (well, 2 servers ...).
And apparently the single application we run on it utilizes Office
2003. Now, I need to upgrade that to Office 2010.

In the deep dark distant past, when I used MS Terminal Server, you had
to install applications a certain way, in order for the remote
sessions to access them. Something about making sure to always do it
from "Add/Remove Programs:, or - alternatively - from a command
prompt, "change user /install".

This is Win2003, so I'm assuming the same holds true.

So: I should just be be able to go to Control Panel, Add/Remove
Programs, choose the CD or Floppy, and when it doesn't find anything
there, I can run the installer from the D: drive of the Citrix server?
And I can do a custom upgrade of Office 2003 to Office 2010 (we only
need Word and Excel, so we would only be installing those 2).

Sound right? My searches seem to indicate so, but I know some of you
do this every day, and I haven't installed anything on a (working)
Terminal Server in like 7 years ....
