Office2007 Converter Admin Install

J

Joe

I want to use a group policy to rollout the Office 2007 Converter to groups
of users. I have tried to do an administrative installation using MSIEXEC,
but nothing gets copied to the targetdir location. The log file shows the
following errors. Does anyone know if an admin installation is possible with
the converter?
Thanks,
Joe

Hi Joe,

You cannot make an "admin install point" like you would with Office 2003,
but you can extact out the contents of the FileFormatConverters.exe file to
obtain a .msi to use with GPO.

Run the following command..

FileFormatConverters.exe /extract:c:\patch

This will extract the contents into the c:\patch dir. Then you can point to
O12Conv.msi when doing a GPO deployment.

Eric,
Thanks for the very fast response. I thought that might be the case.
