I originally installed Office 2K as part of a image when I migrated to Win 2K a couple of years ago. Now whenever a user needs to add a Office component or needs an update, I have to perform the operation manually. I have seen reference in tech information about "bringing Office in to a managed state". I have not been able to find any info on the MS site. I am looking for anyone that has a link to the info or instructions on how to perform the operation.

Thanks

Are you trying to allow users to access the Install CD to add components or give them the right to update their own installations?

My goal is to deploy updates (security or otherwise) automatically using Group Policy. I can change the registry on each machine to point to the installation Cd but, I still can not update office automatically such as when it is installed through Group Policy.
