my apologies if posted in the wrong forum, but i couldn't find the appropiate place were to post this in.

if have the following question:

i want to deploy office 2007 enterprice. now i have made several MSP's with specific products added. for example, i have the MSP "WEPP" this has the products Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Publisher enabled. it also puts a shortcut on the desktop for each user.

now can i specifie the msp in the commandline with the /adminfile file.MSP .

but with the adminfile command i always get the "select product to install" screen. now have i read on several forums that you can overcome this by using the config.xml file. sure it does, but then i can't choose which product i wanted to be installed.

also i tried the /adminfile file.msp /config path\config.xml. but also this doesn't help.
i haven't tried /config path\config.xml /adminfile file.msp yet.

but is there a way to suppress the "select product to install" screen, but have the possibility to specify which products i want to install, like in an MSP?
Or is it possible to combine config.xml and /adminfile in one commandline?
Or to specify in the config.xml which product (word, excel etc.) to be installed, and put a shortcut on the desktop for each user?

thanks in advance

Use this type of command

 msiexec yourpackage.msp /i youroffice.msi /qn

 
Also if you open up a cmd prompt and run msiexec yourmsi.msi /? you can view the options for that package

Choose "Basic" in the Display level
