Hi

installing office 07 seemed to be a little tricky at the start, a while later i felt pretty used to it.

Anyhow, after preparing a mpp file with "setup.exe /admin" -> create new -> save as ".\office07_dir\mysettings.mpp" i tried installing it with a batchfile.. had to play with them a while to figure out this string (the string now shown here might include typos, however since i'm not at home i have to type from memory

Base-Directory: z:\ua\apps\office07
File in base directorsy: inst.cmd

@echo off
color 0b
title Installing Office 2007, Visio and Project
cls
echo.
echo.	Installing Office 2007, please wait....
start /wait setup /i mysettings.mpp /pidkey=xxxxxx... /name="my name"  /company="companys name" (etc)
REM the same lines for visio and project

During normal windows mode the installation worked perfectly. Therefore i copied it to the Windows UA installtion made all necessary changed to the files so inst.cmd gets called, made a new iso and tested.

It ended with the cmd to be called, telling me to wait while office 07 installs, no error messages showed up while office was installed.
However, visio and project produced some error message regarding a registry entry...

After the windows installation i clicked on start, browsed to the office entry but didnt see ANY link in there (only for the enterprise tools).
Then i explored to the apps dir, and didnt see any of the expected exes in there ("word.exe", "excel.exe" etc).

However, Visio and Project got installed as expected, even they had an error message ...

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
