1. Download the office 2003 resource kit from microsoft:

http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/FX011511471033.aspx

2. Create the transform file for your settings.

3. Create a shortcut to the office installation files using this format

For office 2003 pro:

"\\servername\office2003folder\setuppro.exe" TRANSFORMS="\\servername\office2003folder\transformfilename.mst" /qb-

For office 2003 STD:

"\\servername\office2003folder\setupstd.exe" TRANSFORMS="\\servername\office2003folder\transformfilename.mst" /qb-

Then your users can install or you can use a deployment tool to run the script for you on each of the computers.
