Office XP and Product Key

[Oscar]

I am trying to install Office XP on 5000 clients, I know
how to build a MST to make it silent. But after the
install is finished, and you click on Word...it prompts
you for a product key. Is there a way to script the key
in or a tool Im missing...there has to be a way for this
to be totally unattended. HELP!!!!!

You can pass the product key using the PIDKEY=<key> property on the
setup.exe command line. The <key> must be your product key without
hyphens.

(Written for 2k, but XP is similar, and there are links to scripts
for both.)
