Install Office XP Components only

M

MPAI CITS

Good day,

Is there a way to deploy only specific components of the Office Suite
without having to create a separate MST for each component?

I need to deploy these using a Group Policy so this must also support use of
the MSI files.

e.g. I would like to deploy only Frontpage from Office XP pro. but I don't
want to create a saparate MST file.

If you picture the customized deployment of
Front Page from the enterprise (non-retail)
MS Office XP Professional with Front page
as one of several scenarios in your deployment
runs (i.e. another would be the full Office XP
suite), then I'm not clear on the reason you would not want
to create a different MST file for this deployment
as that would be one tool for tailoring an installation.

The MST emulates what you would do to manually do
a custom install from the CD while sitting in front
of the computer.

FWIW, deploying any part of the suite uses one full
suite license.
