How to install OfficeXP Std for all users

[Steve L]

We just bought 6 Dell SX260 workstations with Win2kPro preinstalled. All are
in a win2k domain. We also bought 6 copies of Office XP Std. I tried to do
an admin setup, so I could use a Group Policy Object to install Office XP
Std to all six workstations the same way. However Office setup says I have
to have the enterprise version to do this. I want to ASSIGN Office XP Std to
each machine, not to specific users.

I went ahead and installed it on each machine the hard way, then applied all
the service packs and patches - while logged on as domain admin on each
machine. Now whenever a user logs on they are prompted to insert the Office
XP setup cd. HOW SECURE IS THAT??????

How can I force OXP to install - identically configured and updated for
every user?

Bill Gates should have to sit down and actually use his "solutions" ! Maybe
then he would figure out "What I want to do today!"

Thanks for the help!

OS - Win2kpro SP4

Well, start out using the enterprise media.
then do your setup /a
patch it all
reskit a setup configuration doing a FULL install of EVERYTHING, that should
stop the insertcdprompts.

So how do I get the enterprise media, since we've already opened the
Standard boxes?
