Hi Kamal,

check the Office 2007 Resource Kit. It has alot of helpful tips
We used config.xml files for each language. config_de.xml, config_es.xml
and so on. In the xml file you can specify which language to install :

<AddLanguage Id="en-us" ShellTransform="yes" />
<AddLanguage Id="de-de" />

Then you run setup.exe with the config file.

Regards,
Steven

Hello Steven thanks for your answers

i already known this solution , but is usually used with a network
point to include Language pack.
In my case is not useful.

I customize the config.xml for French language pack , but i'm not
happy whith , it dont match my Office Installation and install
proofing tools i dont need
I only need to install the language pack for an Office standard 2007 ,
and remove all others components from the source to decrease the size
of the package i will deploy
Thanks

According to M$ support it is not possible to create an unattended install of
a customized SLP. Silly but true.
