Adding Office Pro to multiboot DVD

[batson0974]

Is there anyway that I can have the serial number automatically install itself into Office Professional 2003

by adding a batch or .Inf file. I am also using Autoplay media Studio 6 maybe it could be integrated through it.

My copy is Volume Licenced and I tried a Administrative Installation, but it makes my ISO file become to large to burn.

Thank you, for any advise at all.

try to google for Office Resource KIT, download and use it.

you will get a commandline like this (my cmd file):

FOR %%i IN (D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %%i:\win51ip.SP2 SET CDROM=%%i:

start /wait "%cdrom%\OEM\Office\setup.exe TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb-"

and Unattended.MST have you created with Office Resource KIT it contains your install configuration, productkey and a lot more...

or your autoplay mediastudio command:

File.Run("OEM\\OFFICE\\setup.exe", "TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb-", "", SW_MINIMIZE, true);

maybe you can create a Administrative Installation by running setup /a

then you can make an auto-extractor to auto-install it

To have the Office serial number automagically enter itself into the installer, it's much simpler than 5128 says. Just open \FILES\SETUP\setup.ini. Find this section and change it to suit your liking:

[Options]
; The option section is used for specifying individual Installer Properties.
USERNAME=Me
PIDKEY=YourProductCodeHereNoDashes
