Hello everyone, I have been reading/using this site for quite sometime now and have found it to be extremely helpful. Thank you!

I have a question. In my environment (a TV station), I have a sales dept, news dept, engineering dept, business dept, and promotions dept. These departments each have their own software requirements as well as the basics like Acrobat Reader, Quicktime, etc. Now, all of these depts pretty much use the same machines which are Dell Gx620's desktops and Dell D620 laptops. I have been playing around with the RunOnceEx.cmd method and have found it work great. However, what I would like to do is have one RunOnceEx.cmd file that would install the "essentials" that are required across the board (Acrobat, Quicktime, etc.) and then have a RunOnceEx.cmd file for each dept that would install the different applications that would be needed depending on which dept the machine is gonig to.

Currently, I am using RIS with a flat image install with a $oem$ folder in parallel with the i386 directory. I then have multiple .sif files that I can choose between (IE: News, Sales, etc.) that then customize the Windows install, but since I can only have one cmdlines.txt and one RunOnceEx.cmd file, how can I choose which RunOnceEx.cmd is run with the appropriate .sif file?

Thanks in advance for your help!
