Batch file?

[twrizzo]

I just went through and did the Office 2003 Unattended - Advanced method and the last thing it tells me is to add the following to the batch file.

"ECHO.

ECHO Installing Office 2003 Professional

ECHO Please wait...

start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\Office2003\setup.exe TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb-"

Here is the dumb question, and I appologize if this was covered somewhere, but after reading through all of the documentation for hours, I may have missed it. Where do I place the batch command? Is it in the RunOnce or somewhere else?

you save it in a batch file. (a text file, with extension CMD).

Save it in$OEM$\$1\install

then in your Winnt.sif file

[GuiRunOnce]
"%systemdrive%\install\office.cmd"

where office is your batch file.

If you already have a RunOnceEx method deployed I suggest you do it there...

otherwise, do what Alanoll said

Thanks fellas!

I appreciate the help. I admit that I am a newbie to this specific method of unattended installations, but have been creating unattended installs and batch files for years.

I'm curious to another method referred to as the "Update Method." Can someone shed some light on that, or provide a link to an explanation?

Thanks again!
