P.S. does anyone know the reg code for letting a wireless card connect to any wireless network point.

Thanks

It's better that you get SP1 slipstreamed into your original installer, then do the unattended installation.

Doing so you will not need additional switches or commands.

It works with me at least

Plus It would really be a waste of space otherwise and take longer to install.

Unpack your servicepack to a folder named svcpack in the same folder that you have the files folder of office 2003.

Then go to the folder files\setup and add this after the [Product] section in the file setup.ini

[ChainedInstall_1]
TaskName=ServicePack 1
TaskType=exe
Path=FILES\SVCPACK\OHotFix.exe

example:

[Product]
ProductCode=XXX
ProductName=Microsoft Office 2003
ProductVersion=XXX
Recache=1

[ChainedInstall_1]
TaskName=ServicePack 1
TaskType=exe
Path=FILES\SVCPACK\OHotFix.exe

[MST]
...

This will install Servicepack1 after the install of Office...

You MUST label the cd/dvd 'office2003patch', otherwise it won't work.

But as the above post, it will take much longer to install.

Thanks for the replys it doesn't matter how long it takes to install as i allways do an reinstall over night when the pc is not in use. if i slipstream sp1 can i still do office updates, because with office xp i couldn't without re slipstream.

Thanks

This is how I did it. Slipstreaming method gave me some weird errors

In RunOnceEx.cmd

REG ADD %KEY%\000 /VE /D "Office 2003 Professional and SP1" /f REM Working

REG ADD %KEY%\000 /V 1 /D "%SystemDrive%\Install\Applications\Office2003\setup.exe TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb-" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\000 /V 2 /D "%SystemDrive%\Install\Updates\Office2003\Office2003SP1-kb842532-fullfile-enu.exe /Q" /f

I noticed that after I run the office customized installation tool, all the files that I don't need for installation(eg. powerpoint, access, outlook) are still in my cd image. Is there a way to trim it down so I only have Word and Excel? Thanks.
