sorry..

I feel a little bit stupid :-)

I burn a CD (it has to be boot, as in unattended WINXP?) that has the content of C:\OfficeXP\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\install\Aplications\OfficeXP which is

files

install

instmsiw

owc10

readme

autorun

instmsi

officexp.cmd (the cmd file I have made)

pro.msi

unattended.msi (the file I have made with ressource kit).

When I then install this CD on a pc, then the cmd file will be executed???

Hmmmm.... i think i don't need this installation wizard. I have not choosen anything.

I can just stop after the 2 section.

There I have my slipstreamed CD with SP3 updates.

Thats enough for me.

Thank you for your patience

But I'm still not sure where to put the officexp.cmd file

Which folder do I put it in? The C:\OfficeXP\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\install folder ??

What du you meen with this:

in notepad and save it as OfficeXP.cmd and execute it from [GuiRunOnce]

Do you mean that I in winnt.sif has to insert

%systemdrive%\install\officexp.cmd

under [GuiRunOnce]

Thanks

Hi!

I think, that I made my slipstreamed OfficeXP the right way, but there is a problem - the final version is over 900MB... So what should I do to write it on CD. Apply SP3 after installation, archive the final slipstreamed version or maybe I can delete some contents of Office installation?

Thanks!

I try the following method as recommended

msiexec /p C:\OfficeXP\OXPupdates\MAINSP2ff.msp /a C:\OfficeXP\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\install\Applications\OfficeXP\proplus.msi SHORTFILENAMES=TRUE /qb
msiexec /p C:\OfficeXP\OXPupdates\Owc10SP2ff.msp /a C:\OfficeXP\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\install\Applications\OfficeXP\OWC10.MSI SHORTFILENAMES=TRUE /qb

but the following occurs

This patch package could not be opened. Verify that the patch package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer patch package.

Any help guys? thanks!
