Multiple MSP files.

I'm creating some installs for Office 2007 Enterprise. I have a basic build
that installs Excel, Word and Powerpoint. The .MSP is called basic.msp and is
in the update folder. I also need to do various language versions of these so
I also have in the Enterprise.WW folder a config.XML and configfr.XML, etc.
However, if I want to create a build that also includes Access then I need to
create basicaccess.MSP in the update folder. How do I tell setup.exe which
..MSP to use. My normal command line is..

\\server\share\setup.exe /config \\server\share\Enterprise.WW\config.XML

What should I use to specify the MSP I want to use?

Thanks

Hi MCP,

There are a couple of ways you can go. One is to include the .MSP files that everyone will get in the updates folder and the ones
for specific configurations in other folders and include them on your setup command line/shortcut/script or in a Config.xml file.
