Hi Everybody!
Hope someone will be able to help me … Trying to make a CD that will start and complete Office 2003 installation without users? intervention.
– – – Other complicating factors – – –
The computer already has Office XP and Outlook 2003 (with existing mail profile) installed, so the setup must remove Office XP, but leave Outlook 2003 untouched.
– – – Thing I?ve already done – – –
Used D:\setup.exe /a
To copy contents of MSO CD to my hard drive (C:\MSO2003).
Slipstreamed SP1:
msiexec /p C:\SP1\MAINSP1ff.msp /a C:\ MSO2003\PRO11.msi SHORTFILENAMES=TRUE /qb
msiexec /p C:\SP1\OWC11SP1ff.msp /a C:\ MSO2003\OWC11.MSI SHORTFILENAMES=TRUE /qb
Used the Custom Installation Wizard to create Unattended.MST. The file will remove all previous Office installations and will not install Outlook 2003 (Hopefully it will not remove the existing Outlook).
– – – – – – – – –
Now I am stuck … Can I just copy all this to a CD? How would I go about forcing setup to run upon CD insertion and finish without asking any questions?
Greatly appreciate any help!
