Installing Office 2007 Standard Edition

Posted: 30 Jan 2008 04:42 PM PST

If you have Office 2007 Standard Edition, then NO, it does NOT "clearly
state in the directions/user agreement that this software can be used on
up to 3 computers".

And it's dead already? I'd be royally ticked off. Dead computer and no
Office software. I'd suggest calling the computer manufacturer. Nothing
ventured - nothing gained.

Or I suppose I can bite the bullet and upgrade the machine(s) to XP or
install XP on a separate partition and create a dual boot system.
Then I suppose I can load Office 2007 on the XP partition.

Please go to the Control Panel to install and configure system components ???????

Hi Vilius,

It could be a couple of things. You may want to check the Path
statement(s) in the 'Environment Variables' of Windows XP, the sequence that is searched for a command can be influenced there.

With so many programs that use a 'setup.exe' command qualifying it with an explicit path is often a useful help :)

Uninstall Office 2007 trail version

Posted: 27 Jan 2008 06:45 PM PST

Thanks a lot, the other posted issue was from someone else, not me, sorry
about the confussion. It was about; somone has installed Office 2003,
instaleld the trail version of 2007 and when the trail version of 2007
expired it was causing problems with the 2003 version. I will try your
unistall suggestion. I also have Office 2003 installed, do you think that it
might be affected by the manual uninstall of 2007 trail? (not using the Add
and Remove Programs option).

Privacy concerns when installing Groove as part of Office Enterpri

Posted: 27 Jan 2008 04:33 PM PST

After restarting the PC, choose Microsoft Office 2007 and change the applications or features you do not want to 'Not Available'
state so they're not going to run.

I proceeded to agree with the Software License Terms and the installation
subsequently automatically started without prompting me to choose between
custom install or standard install. I would have expected what you said to
occur and I then would have chosen custom.
Although the install had proceeded & completed, I have not yet restarted my
PC, however now when I look at the Add/Remove Programs, MS Enterprise is
shown but the individual Office suite applications are not. Maybe each one
will be shown there after I restart my PC, maybe not, I don't know.
Is this typical?
Now that Enterprise is installed, how do I proceed to try to ensure not
utilizing/running the Groove application once I reboot my PC? >>

Installation Error with Office 2003

Posted: 25 Jan 2008 07:33 PM PST

The files to be installed during the Office 2003 Setup are mostly contained
in .CAB files (ie, compressed cabinet files). This message suggests that
disk is damaged. Try copying the contents of the CD to the hard drive to
verify that the file can be copied. If it fails, then you have a damaged
disk that should be replaced.

Deploying 2007 With Script - Prompted To Select Application

Posted: 25 Jan 2008 01:46 PM PST

Hi Sloan,

Thanks for the reply. In answer to your question, yes and no... I'm
writing this post in a detailed fashion in the event that anyone else has
this issue.

Per the instructions for deploying the Office 2007 suite, I created the
installation source which copies setup files for the entire product line. So
in that event, yes, there are other products with the Office Professional
Plus at the installation source, each in a subdirectory, with setup.exe at
the root of the installation source. I did not combine any other languages
into the installation source.

In any event, I was able to solve the problem. Based on my research of
various deployment methods, I found Active Directory to be unacceptable
(thanks, by the way, for taking that out... it worked brilliantly with
2003... I would have had too much time on my hands had I used it again...),
so I viewed a startup script or the config.xml deployment methods.

I didn't know one could combine the startup script with a custom config.xml
script. I created a config.xml file which only designated the product ID,
and I placed that in the same folder as setup.exe. Now when I call
"setup.exe /adminfile file.msp", setup apparently reads the config.xml file
and proceeds directly to the installation with no prompt. I'm inclined to
believe that I could replace it with whatever product ID I wanted to, and it
would install it correspondingly.

Here's the very simple Config.xml file:

<Configuration Product="ProPlus">

<!-- <PIDKEY Value="BCDFGHJKMPQRTVWXY2346789B" /> -->

</Configuration>

I found the Product ID for Professional Plus in the default config.xml file
in the ProPlus.WW subfoler.

Bottom line: using the config.xml file provides setup.exe with the product
to install, and using the /adminfile switch with a custom .msp file gives all
of the user settings.

Thanks again for your reply.
