Auto fill in of Product key
dave 13.07.2006 20:35:02
Is there a way to automatically fill in my product key? We have a volume
license key and we want to manually install office on each PC. But, I don't
want to type in the key each time.

Is there some kind of batch file I can run from a disk or something that
will do it for me? Is there some other way?
Thanks in advance
Dave

What version of office are you using.

Download the 2003 Office Resource Kit Utility from Microsoft and install it
on a workstation. Create an Admin installation point for Office using
setup.exe /a. Run the Custom Installation Wizard from the resource kit, and
pointing to your admin install, you can create a transform file with as much
or little customized information in it that you like. Store the transform
file with your Admin installation point. You then launch the setup using
"msiexec.exe /i xxx.msi transforms=yyy.mst" (or something close to that) and
office will install with your customizations in place.
