OK, I want to install Office 2000 on my network. I want it so that when I install Office from the network that the user preferences are set and I don't have to manually go in and setup the preferences on every PC. I read something about this on theOffice 2000 resource kit and it mentioned something about the custom installation wizard...But it did not tell me where I could find it. Where is the EXE file for this? Also will this installation wizard thing do what I want it to do?

The file name for the Custom Installation Wizard is Custwiz.exe, located in the \Pfiles\Orktools\Toolbox\Tools\Ciw_ieak\Ciw folder on the Microsoft Office 2000 Resource Kit compact disc.

The way to do this is to generate a custom Transform file for the Microsoft Installer. The Wizard in the resource kit will help. Also, check out Microsoft's website for info on the Installer and .msi & .mst files. The Office Resource Kit also hasnice templates for the System Policy Editor to use in customizing the users' environment at logon.
