| How can I custom reinstall Office 2003 SBE? Posted: 19 Aug 2004 06:58 PM PDT Hi Greg,
To 'reinstall' Office with different settings you'd
need to first uninstall it then restart the PC then install
using the 'custom' installation choice, but, if your copy
of MS Office System 2003 is running satisfactorily then
when you are in Add/Remove Programs and select the [Change]
button, you can choose the Add or Remove Features choice
to take you to the listing of all features.
Once there, if you choose the top 'sugar cube' and set it
to 'run all from my computer' you can add any missing features
when that is accomplished, or you can choose differing levels
of the feature tree and set individual features or groups of
features to run from your computer or to run on 1st use or
to not available (don't install that feature).

Hello!
I want to re-install Office 2003 SBE OEM. When I run the CD, it gives me
three choices: Add or Remove Features, Reinstall or Repair, or Uninstall. If
I choose Reinstall, I do not get the chance to choose what features I want.
Basically, I want to reinstall, but I want to make sure it is a full
installation of Word and Excel, including everything they offer.
Is there a command-line switch I can use to force a custom reinstall?
Thank you for helping!

| Parallel installation of Office 97 and Office 2000 on a W2k Posted: 18 Aug 2004 04:08 AM PDT Hi Matt,
My PC has versions of Office going back to DOS ones <g>
Office 97 uses the older AcmeSetup for installation and
MS Office 2000 and higher uses MS Windows Installer (MSI)
When you switch to an Office 97 app (can't have multiple
Excel copies) the installer resets registry entries to make
that version current, but you don't see any dialogs to advise
you of that. When you next run a newer version you will see
an 'Installer preparing to run dialog' as that version switches
things back so that it can run correctly. In general, for the
scenario you outline, things should be okay for support purposes
although there could be some issues if you're using add-ins
in the two versions. Also, if you're trying to replicate
a specific error condition, then you may not see it in a mixed
environment (i.e. you may have a 'fixed'(updated) common DLL
in play, for example).
You may want to look at using MS Virtual PC setups with the
different versions of Office. There's a 45 day trial copy
available.

Hi!
Thanks for your reply and tip!
I did a number of searches on support.microsoft.com but
missed that one! Very informative.
May I ask if your own experience is that there indeed are
no problems in real life than? Would you say that the
article cover everything essential?
The reason for the parallel installation is that we need
to give user support (mainly less complicated telephone
support) to users with different Excel versions.
The idea is that the operator should have the exact same
menus and dialogues as the caller.
Thanks again.

| Office 2K install runs every time a user logs in Posted: 18 Aug 2004 02:03 AM PDT Thanks for your help.
This is a school so all users have roaming profiles, and don't have a local
status: group assignment as far as I understand. The profiles are petty much
locked down, but I suppose the only problem is that the office install isn't
saved once it has run once.
I read somewhere once about giving permissions to something on the local PC
to all users, if that jogs anyones memory.
I also suspect the install maybe needed some switches to enable office to
run in this environment/ manner

Winfax Pro 10.02 or later. I'm not sure what version works with Word
2003. In any case, you might be better off uninstalling the Winfax
add-in for Word, because many users experience startup problems when the

| Office 2003 Setup /m switch Posted: 13 Aug 2004 07:49 AM PDT I think I found it. To use the /m switch with the setup wrapper (that in
turn passes it to msiexec where it is used), you must have ISMIF32.DLL
located somewhere in the path. See msiexec command line options:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/msi/setup/command_line_options.asp?frame=true
It is very possible that my test PC at work doesn't have the adv client on
it yet (I was testing from my CD installation, not an SMS push) or it has
issues.
Anyway these appear to be the requirements for using the /M switch:
1) ISMIF32.DLL present (normally there from an SMS client install, but
comes with some dev products like Visual Studio 6.0)
2) No extension (i.e. .MIF) should be supplied
3) Should not include path (mif will always be placed in %systemroot%)
4) Name specified must be 8 characters or less
I know I met 2-4, but I bet ISMIF32.DLL not being in the path is the
problem.
Thanks,
Frank
