Office 2007 via SMS

[crc.01]

Group, I have a Office 2007 package I am piloting for a advertisement to
systems within my organization. I am using Office 2007 Enterprise with
several .msp fields I have created. Previuosly with SMS I was able to set a
silent swicth so the user did not have to interact with the install at all.
With 2007 Enterprise, I have only been able to get it to work by setting SMS
to allow user interaction. By doing so, the user gets prompted to select the
applications they wish to install. I wish to bypass this prompt to the user
but when I set the properties to not allow user interaction the install
stalls. I cant find any documentation on silent installs switcthes for 2007
that would suppress this selection screen but want the installs to run with
the application of the msp without user interaction. Anyone have any success
with this?
Thanks in advance!

You should be able to use a command line to point to a specific Config.xml
file.
Sample: \\server\share\setup.exe /config
\\server\share\Enterprise.WW\config.xml

In that config.xml file make sure the settings include:
<Display Level="none" AcceptEula="Yes" />

If needed, you can use a command line to point to the desired .MSP
customization file using the /admin switch and the specific config.xml file
using the /config switch.

More information on Setup command line options is in the ORK:

I hope this helps.
