How to add components of Microsoft Office without Logging out and Logging in as Admin

[Herbert Chan]

Hello,

I am the administrator in my office. Sometimes I will need to add for my
users some optional components of Microsoft Office. I know such components
will need to be added through Add or Remove Program inside Control Panel.
With a normal user's account, it is not possible to add components to
Microsoft Office. Is it possible that when I am at my user's desk, I can
run this Add or Remove Program module as admin, without having to log out
and log in?

Right click on the setup.exe file on the CD and choose Run-As. That will
give you the option of "running-as" the Administrator without actually
loging off and logging on as the Administrator.

It is an office PC and it's preinstalled with office. Therefore, I don't
have the CD with me. I just have the admin right to all the PC.

In this case, what can I do?

You still should have the CDs for Office, even if it's pre-installed - if
you haven't then you need to talk to whoever sold you the computer.
