Read the Unattended Guide, the answer can be found there easily. You can have Office installed directly from CD-ROM via RunOnceEx.

You will probably have to use nlite for the XPCD if you want to fit both on one CD.

I would suggest to simply use a DVD to burn the project on, so that disc capacity will never be an issue.

agreed. use dvd if at all possible because even if you get it down to less than 700 you may unknowingly take out something you wanted to keep or youll run out of space when integrating updates

thank for you reply i was so busy ,i will see the unattended guide ,

please if any one has attachment file like PDF or any writen steups so i will follow it ..

WINNT.SIF in short supplies the answers for the setup process of Windows XP itself. To run installations directly from CD-ROM after the installation of Windows XP has finished you can best use RunOnceEx. Click here for more information. Are you positive that you read the Unattended Guide?
