Import Word 2010 ribbon customization file .exportUI

Is there a way to import the .exportUI file unattendedly,  ie by means of script / cmd / command line ?
Answer
Answer

There may be, but a real question is what you want to accomplish by doing this. If you are trying to share customizations, you are much better off creating a Global Template that holds the customizations and sharing that by placing it the Word Startup Folder. You can share QAT customizations much more easily.

Customize the Ribbon (It doesn't take rocket science)

Importing the .exportUI file overwrites any user customizations. This can cause resentment (justifiable). It is like overwriting someone's Normal template.
