Yeah same here.

No true integration (replacement of source files with newer ones) for Office 2007 SP1 or Vista SP1. They're certainly going backwards.

any way to integrate your serial number into the installation so you dont have to enter it?

[nycste]

like ive done with games before and i think offices

cant you just install it and then apply patches

so now you have a fully uptodate office folder or set of folders and updated registry files etc.

then just copy the folders office filled up, make registry copies or backups whatever they are called then then compress all of it and it should fit on a cd, it should auto update everything unpon extraction and then apply registry files to input ur serial and settings or something?

wouldnt that work, i havent seen anyone mention it yet, instead you guys are just trying to make a dvd type thing with the exception of one guy saying he sfx'd his.

any input? im a total newb thats just my way of thinking

Admin install?

Simply run "setup /admin".

in the directory with name based on your version (for ex. if is ultimate you can find: "Ultimater.WW") there is a file config.xml with commented value:

<!-- <PIDKEY Value="BCDFGHJKMPQRTVWXY2346789B" /> -->

uncomment:

<PIDKEY Value="BCDFGHJKMPQRTVWXY2346789B" />

and put your serial in ""

what if I want to slipstream other Office 2007 SP1 into the original Office 2007 RTM ...like :
Microsoft® Office Language Pack 2007 SP1
Microsoft® Office Project 2007 SP1
Microsoft® Office SharePoint® Designer 2007 SP1
Microsoft® Office Visio® 2007 SP1


I already tried to extract each of the package...but each package contains several files that have same name.
So if I copied to the updates folder those file will overwrite each other...

Any solution to slipstream all of the SP1 package into the update folder ?
Can I create sub folder in the update folder that each subfolder contains each extracted SP1 package?

Thanks...
