Office 2007 silent installation

Hi, I got a pretty simple silent installation going on here but would like to
change the install directory. Stupid thing doesn't work even if I use the
sample they give me on Technet. It keeps giving me an invalid install error
message. It goes away when I take the INSTALLLOCATION line out. I'm just
testing this out on a Virtual PC 2007 XP installation and running it from the
local virtual drive just to see if it would work at all. The RUN command I
use is C:\Office2007\setup.exe /config custom-uA.XML

<Configuration Product="Pror">

<Display Level="none" CompletionNotice="no" SuppressModal="yes"
AcceptEula="yes" />

<PIDKEY Value="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" />
<USERNAME Value="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" />
<COMPANYNAME Value="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" />

<INSTALLLOCATION VALUE=â€%ProgramFiles%l\All\Microsoft Office†/>

<OptionState Id="ProductFiles" State="Local" Children="force" />

</Configuration>

Oh and is there any way as to how to remove the MSOCache folder? Thanks! :)

Nevermind, I found my stupid little mistake. I was using the wrong type of
quotes for the INSTALLLOCATION line. That'll teach me for copy+paste from a
website. :)
