Installing Multipule Office Transforms from batch file

[Jared]

I have created a MST file for Access, One for Power Point, One for Work, One for Excel, One for Outlook, and one for Disk 2 publisher.
Here is what I want to do I have diffrent departments that want diffrent things instead of creating MST files for each department I would like to be able to install a combination on any PC and at any time.
Here is the Problem after I install one and one of them (not counting disk 2) it works great. Put if I go to install a second one it acts like it is installing but there is no shortcut and it dose not see to install? If I install one and then come back and install disk 2 works great the first program works fine and disk 2 works fine. Is there any way that I can install diffrent office transforms on the same computer.

Hi Jared,

I'm assuming you're installing from a MS Office CD, not from individual
MS Office app admin points?


Applying a transform when installing MS Office is basically what you'd
be doing by hand in a single installation. Once MS Office is installed
you would then use Add/Remove Programs to 'modify' the installation.
For the 'batch' version of that you'd use the MS Office Custom Maintenance
Wizard (CMW). You can create different transforms to use for different
user classes, or departments and apply the .MST file that best fits that
need, but you can't apply a transform to an already installed copy of
MS Office.

You'll find more details and some scenarios in http://microsoft.com/office/ork
