Automate Office 2003 product activation

Guest

Heya,

Is there a way to automate either Office XP or Office 2003 product
activation? We're using a VLK for X number of systems (can't remember
off the top of my head.) When we set them up, we would rather not have
to go through the clicky bit in Office to get them completely
functional. We would also rather not have the users do it.

Is there a way to either script or use a transform file to automate
Office activation?

Thanks,
Tiffany

That has been a source of contention between us and Microsoft for a
while. Apparently our VLK can be activated X number of times but we
still have to go through the incredibly irritating phase of doing so.

Hmmm, does Office XP offer automated activation?

Thanks,

Hi Tiffany,

If you create an Office Admin Installation Point
using a Volume License Key (VLK) then you shouldn't
need to activate installs created from that Admin Point.
