You could also just slip stream the Service pack1 and the updates to your install folder.

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.

WshShell.Run "msiexec.exe /p " & OFFICEFOLDER & "\office2003\updates\servicepack1\mainsp1ff.msp /qb-!", 1, True

WshShell.Run "msiexec.exe /p " & OFFICEFOLDER & "\office2003\updates\servicepack1\owc102003sp1ff.msp /qb-!", 1, True

WshShell.Run "msiexec.exe /p " & OFFICEFOLDER & "\office2003\updates\servicepack1\owc11sp1ff.msp /qb-!", 1, True

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