maxXPsoft Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 I created an Office XP SP3 by this http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/officexp_advanced.htmand it says to rename the TRANSFORMS=C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\install\Applications\Office2003\Unattended.MST /qb-to...TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb-It won't let me rename that with the Microsoft Office XP Resource Kit Tools I downloaded = orktools.exe on same link. It it keeps that path it probably won't install correctly.How do you get around this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alanoll Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 thank you for reminding me...the site isn't too clear about that. It should be that you close out of the ORK tools, and then when adding it to your batch file or whatever you change it THERE to just unattend.mst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxXPsoft Posted January 4, 2005 Author Share Posted January 4, 2005 Thanks AlanollI tried every search I string could and couldn't find anything like that. Also some of my screens were a little different and I thought the version I had was the problem. Tried everything to open it also and finally with VB and I don't see any path like the long one.

prathapml Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 No, don't worry, it will install fine. That TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb-refers to the command-line to use to install Office2k3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackhack Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 (edited) I know this is quite an old thread, but I thought why opening a new one since this is the same problem I have now. My batch file looks like that and is taken from the above mentioned website:ECHO.ECHO Installing Office 2003 ProfessionalECHO Please wait...start /wait "f:\Desktop Support\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\install\Applications\Office2003\setup.exe" TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb-What is wrong that it won't allow me to install Office 2003? Below is the error message.---------------------------TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST---------------------------Windows cannot find 'TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search.---------------------------OK ---------------------------Could someone please post the correct batch file content?Thank you very much in advance for your help.

ECHO Installing Office 2003 Professional ECHO Please wait... start /wait "c:\install\Applications\Office2003\setup.exe" TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb-Thanks for your reply, but the installation files aren't on the C:\ drive. They are on network drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myselfidem Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Maybe you need to check if the name you used is correct, mine is (whithout quotes):Example with WPI:'%WPIPath%\\Install\\Office2003\\setup.exe TRANSFORMS=UNATTEND.MST /qn'Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackhack Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 What name? From the unattended.mst file? I double checked that already. F2 on the file, copied the file name and pasted it into the batch file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myselfidem Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb-TRANSFORMS=UNATTEND.MST /qb-You see the difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackhack Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 So is that case sensitive? Attached is a screenshot of the directory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
