Product Key problem when using CIW and MSTs

L

Lorwynd

Afternoon, All!

I have created a network install of Office 2K3 Pro using CIW. The first
build of an .mst I used the test PID and it worked fine. The suite was
installed, and the first time I ran one of the apps, I was asked to accept
the EULA. I uninstalled the Suite, then created a new .mst that did not
include a PID. When I ran the setup, it would close itself and not install
the software. I editted the setup.ini file to include OEM=1 and ran setup
again. It installed fine. When I open the apps, I am not prompted to accept
the EULA, nor to enter a PID. I check the product info under "help" and it
shows me a product Key like this: #####-OEM-#######-#####. The #'s are
actual digits, of course. While the products are all working great, the
product key displayed is wrong and I have no idea where it pulled it from.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

these aren't product _keys_ but product _IDs_ which are generated from the
product key and some otherdata...once you've set the product up, it's not
easy to get back the product key.
