mickmack Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 just got beta1 of new office suite. it has a lot of XML & MSI files. does somebody know how to install it? most interesting thing that is has folder UPDATES with README.TXT. text from README.TXT "Any patches placed in this folder will be applied during initial install."so i think office 12 should be friendly to unattended installs, updates, and MUI, Proofing tools installation.
