I like the way i run my install of Office 2k3 on my DVD, but i was wondering if there is a way to silently run the SP1 update after my office is installed. I know ther are 3 updates that i know of ..

Office 2003 Service Pack 1
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...&displaylang=en

Visio 2003 Service Pack 1
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...&displaylang=en

Update for Outlook : Junk E-mail KB870765
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...&displaylang=en

Can someone help me ??

Remember I want to silently install ... not slipstream...

you should be able to use just /qb on the commandline.

You could also just slip stream the Service pack1 and the updates to your install folder. Thats what i did.
here is a good article from msfn.org

PoNi, yes as Alanoll said, "/QB" on the SP1 updates should be enough to make the updates happen silently.

Thanks guys for you help .. Looks like you have to use the /Q command. I now have Office 2k3 working with all of the updates and my source is only 1.17 gigs . Much smaller then most .... Here is how i did it if anyone is interested...

I basically copied down the source from my AiO disk, created the MST files. I install each one first, and then run the updates..Works like a charm....

Here is the script that i used ...

Where I work, we extracted the msp and then run it using /qb-! not sure of the reason behind it but it works.

Running MSPs is just another alternative. Your admin wants you not to interrupt installation. This is why there is an !.
