Is this the wrong group?

Posted: 23 Feb 2005 12:55 PM PST

Yes, I suppose, since this is for clean installations of Windows 2000.

Change 'Open Office Document' Location?

Posted: 22 Feb 2005 02:56 PM PST

Oh, okay. Well I don't see what version of any software you are using,
but other users who tried to do the same thing you are hoping to do
have accomplished this by by resetting the My Documents folder through
the Places Bar adjustments with the addin interface or through the
registry settings. See these articles...

Office 2003 deployment issues

Posted: 22 Feb 2005 12:24 PM PST

We don't require an uninstall in order to do the initial install. Where the
uninstall comes into play is when our support department needs to have
someone uninstall and then re-install. They frequently do this in order to
solve problems. One of our requirements for corporate deployment is the
install should not give them a UI. During this re-install right now the
only way I've found to re-install is through the full UI. Below is the
command we use for the initial install and also the re-install. I've tried
adding REINSTALL=ALL and the REINSTALLMODE properties with no success.

Slipstream Office Service Packs

Posted: 21 Feb 2005 03:29 PM PST

It depends on which version of office you are updating. If OfficeXP then
you can't reburn it to CD unless someone knows how to fix the problem I'm
having. See my post "MSI admin update for OfficXP_pro SP3 results 860mb
directory"

Posted: 20 Feb 2005 10:14 PM PST

I think you just mentioned what the problem is, you are trying to slipstream
a service pack to a cached CD copy and not an administrative install point.
I think the best you can do with a cached CD copy is chain the install of
the service pack.

1) I assume you meant the "product installation key" not the "product ID"
they are not one and the same.

2) You must be incredibly talented to type in an invalid installation key

installation key dozens of times and never once has it been accepted as
valid.

Speech trouble

Posted: 18 Feb 2005 05:27 PM PST

Hi Mum,

The Office (Word) speech recognition feature supports
U.S. English rather than UK or AUS.

You shouldn't need to reinstall Word from MS Works Suite
but you may want to check your settings for the
Speech/Text input area to set that part up for
U.S. English.

<<"surfermum" <microsoft.com> wrote in message news:com...
I installed Microsoft 2004 Works suite using Australian language as the
preference. I then tried to setup the Speech Utility and it worked during
the initial setup with the training appearing to work but as soon as I went
into Word to use Speech it did not respond at all. Is this because I need to
uninstall and re-install the Microsoft 2004 Works Suite in US English
language rather than Australian?

How do I install my Office 2000 on my Windows XP?

Posted: 18 Feb 2005 08:01 AM PST

OK, My ME OS was on my old computer along with my MS Office 2000. When I got
my new computer I installed the XP upgrade using the ME Disk and Product Key
Code from it to install the upgrade. Someone mentioned something about OEM
of my old system and this wont install on my new one. So, they told me to
get into the Office Newsgroup for the answer. Does this give you anymore
info to try and help me solve this?

Object library not registerd

Posted: 17 Feb 2005 06:08 PM PST

Eureka, I found the problem!

Permit to pause whilst I let off some steam.

Hsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!

Ah, that felt good.

After spending severals hours today uninstalling, re-installing, using
eraser97 and manually removing things, I was finally able to re-install
Office and not have the error occur.

However, my glee was short lived!

When I restored my global templates to the Startup directory, the error
re-appeared!

I then added the templates to the Startup directory 1 at a time and found
the problem.

On 4 Oct 2004, I had modified one of the global templates and somehow the
reference to the VBA extensibility library 5.3 was "MISSING". Due to changes
I made back in Oct, I'm not even sure thgat the reference is any longer
necessary, which is likely why I neverr noticed a problem.

So, it would appear that I had not used Tools | References in Word 97 since
at least 4 October 2004.

All I had to do was correct the reference in a copy of the gloabal template
that was not in the Startup directory, then replace the critter in the
Startup directory.

I used Retrospect to restore the C drive to yesterday's files, then replaced
the template.

Solution was simple.
Path to finding it very difficult.

MSFT error message not very useful.

Why did it not just tell me that there was a specific midssing reference?

Taskbar question . . .

Thank you, but this is for arranging worksheets. I want the taskbar button
in the taskbar to be stacked with all of my open worksheet on it, instead I
have either one taskbar button without the open worksheets, or each
worksheet has a different button.
Thanks

Deploying Office 2000 AND 2003 via GPO

Posted: 16 Feb 2005 03:02 PM PST

Thanks Neo. Looks like I'll have to find another solution; this excerpt
from your linked article sums it up:

"Using Group Policy software installation
"Group Policy software installation works directly with the MSI file and
bypasses Office 2003 Setup and the Setup.ini file when assigning or
publishing packages. For this reason, you cannot use Setup.exe to chain
Office 2003 installations when you assign or publish packages. Instead,
Microsoft Windows deploys Office 2003, the Office 2003 Multilingual User
Interface Pack, and other Office-related packages separately and in random
order. Because Office 2003 must be installed first, before a MUI Pack
installation can succeed, you cannot use chaining with Group Policy software
installation to combine these installations."

Thanks for the good resource.

Bryan
