I have done an "administrative installation" of Office
2003 on a network share. I then attempted to use Custom Installation Wizard to create an MST file for user installs. I want to the user installation process to upgrade (install) Outlook 2003....and leave the rest of Office alone. After installation...the user machine should have Office 2000 components (which already existed)...and Outlook should have been upgraded to 2003. I haven't figured out the right settings in CIW yet...when I do a user install...I get Office 2000 components (word, excel, etc.), in addition to Office 2003 components (word, excel, etc.)...and Outlook 2003. How do I use CIW to tell the Office MSI and my MST to only install Outlook 2003....I don't want the rest of Office 2003 installed????? |

There is a possibility this may not be possible, I have
had similar problems with Office 2K\XP when you want to upgrade one thing it does the lot regardless. It probably stems from the options chosen with the program you want to install, i.e. they require components from these other programs and therefore Word and so on get installed. One quick solution may be to go out and buy a copy of Outlook 2003 without the rest of office. Then it won't be able to install the other applications. This is probably one for the forum sysop who might be able to be more specific, anfd indicate whether or not it is actually possible. >-----Original Message----- >I have done an "administrative installation" of Office >2003 on a network share.
