Office 2007 RTM Installation Question

S

Hi,

the new Office 2007 RTM is great so far, but we have a small problem with
our planned rollout. What to do with Users who have no local Admin rights??
We do not use SMS or GPO for software distribution, but a 3rd party software.
So far it installs the RTM on the PC when the user has no local Admin
rights, but the software distribution program closes in the middle of the
installation. There is no Office Installation Window either. When I look in
the Taskmanager, the ose0000.exe, msiexec.exe (in various instances) etc. are
still running. When the installation is finished, the 2 files are still
active in the Task Manager.

What I would like to know is, what does the installation do as last?
Is there a registry key that always comes at the end, or a certain file?
I looked in the Installation Log Files, but their not very easy to read.

If I knew what the installation did as last, then I can just add a sleep
command in my script until that Registry key or file is there.

Any help would be appreciated.


Best Regards,
Steven
