I don't know if this is possible I am building a office 2003 sp2 slipstream disc I would like to include my activation .DLL file in the slipstream. If this is possible where is the file located? Would I just copy the .DLL into the folder prior to creating a ISO?

This is not a warez request.

Thank you for your help,

Office 2003: Activate over the Internet and save opa11.dat.
file is stored here: you will have to install it in safe mode

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\OFFICE\DATA [If you can't see the OFFICE\DATA folder, you need to show hidden files and folders in Windows Explorer, Tools, Folder Options, View.]

look here---->http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/office2003_advanced.htm

hope this helps

if any other members can help please post

You might need to place the activation file at this location on the CD to have it pre-activated (done automatically):
$OEM$\$DOCS\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\OFFICE\DATA

Place the opa11.dat in there, do the rest of your normal slip-streaming processes, and you're done with it.

Can you use $OEM$ folders on an Office install disk? I thought that was only for a Windows installation.

Well, this (folders being referred to) *IS* on a windows disc - we are talking of having the windows setup, office 2003, other apps, and o2k3 activation being pre-setup.
