I am trying to deploy over 1000 office installations via SMS 2.0. I have created an O2K package using O2K resource kit. I have the following two questions I am looking answers for.
1: Is there an installation option which allows the user to see theinstallation progess bar 9or something on the screen for that matter) without giving them an option to cancel or alter the setup.
2: I would like to use environment variable to define where the office files are located. This way if my server dies, or I want to use a different server, all I have to do is change the variable in the login script.

Thank you.

#2: I have solved that problem myself. You can use \\%serverName%\%ShareName% in O2k Customization Wizard as the additional server and then define the variable it to use any server.

If you go into command prompt and go to your O2k directory (where setup is found) and type
Setup /? you will get a list of options avaliable.

I believe one that you are looking for is,

/display (no | basic | reduced )(completion notice)UI: /q(n|b|r)(+)

Hope this helps.

Thank you for the reply but none of these options allow you to show the progress bar without allowing user to press the cancel button.
