So which one needs editing or am i lookin at the wrong one?

XKnoppix Posted September 13, 2005 Author Share Posted September 13, 2005 What is an enterprise edition of MS Office? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexH Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 What is an enterprise edition of MS Office?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Office 2003 - SlipstreamingFrom the Office Resource Kit site: Only editions of Office 2003 acquired through a Volume License agreement or other non-retail channel allow you to create an administrative installation point. You cannot run Setup.exe in administrative mode ( /a ) with an Office 2003 retail edition. If you cannot make an Administrative Installation Point, you will not be able to slipstream the latest updates into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XKnoppix Posted September 18, 2005 Author Share Posted September 18, 2005 AlexH: read it a million times. But that has ZERO to do with my probem. I'm asking for help installing a non-enterprise version of Office. I'm not even trying to do an administrative install point. Because i know you can't. So save your "read the guide" tips. Maybe this isn't even possible. But i'm hoping someone out there has figured this out. Because i can't be the only person that has a retail version of MS Office. Thanks alot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtomGhoster Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 I have a retail version of Office Professional 2003 and have a silent install with transforms working. It takes a bit of hacking but it does work. I just followed the instructions found here: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=24307&hl=Good luck getting this to work.
