ok, I have done what it says. I am trying to do this will office 2000 small business.

If i do a setup.exe /a, it doesnt ask me where to save it to, or for a product key or anything, it just automatically puts it right onto a nertwork drive that I have mapped. If i dont have a network drive mapped, it installs to the C drive.

I tried it with the CIW to, and it all installs properly, but when I open it for the first time, i need to input the product key.

How do i go about getting the product key into the install so i dont need to put it in there myself?

maybe I can explain this better.

I did an administrative install, but when i do setup.exe /a

it does not walk me through the setup process, it just goes right into copying all the files needed onto a network drive. It does not ask me where i want to install it to, or for a product key or anything. There is no user interaction at when i try to make the administrative install point. can someone help me?

It is office 2000 sr1

please help

thank you
