this is what I use and it does work.

extract your openoffice folder and put this file in the main folder with the setup.exe.

; save as openoffice.txt

; Basic settings
[Environment]
  InstallationMode=INSTALL_NORMAL
  DestinationPath=C:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org

; if you want to disable quicktart remove the 
; Little hack to disable the QuickStarter
;[Module_Specify]
;  InstallProcedure = MySelectProc

;[Procedures]
;Sub MySelectProc
;  SelectModuleByName ( "OpenOffice" )
;  DeSelectModuleByName ( "QuickStarter" )
;End Sub

put this into your batch file
