I Have to create this image also on RIS Or Norton Or ....Whatever works
best?

If anyone could point me in the right direction, thank you
 
You can not slipstream Office into the XP install CD.

However, once you install XP and all your application, including Office, you
can create a "Recovery CD" which will be able to the your PC back to the
configuration that you just have finished setting up. Take a look at Norton
Ghost.
 
Thanks, where i worked there was a developer that had a image on RIS and
UNattend with install scripts that would add the office apps ....but..It was
a long time ago..far far away

Thanks, Brian

You're welcome.
 
What you can do is that you add the installation folder for office to your
cd.
In the unattended.txt you set up a commandline to install office
