Is it possible to stop the EULA from displaying on startup?

[Elai]

I have several installations of Office 2003 on site. When starting Office
applications some of them display the EULA and require Acceptance before
using the applicaton and some do not exhibit this behaviour. Is there some
way to stop the EULA from displaying on application start? All these
installs have gone through product activation, but not product registration.

Thanks,

Elai

Hi Elai,

The acceptance of the EULA includes writing an entry
in the registry. You may need to log in as administrator
to accept it.

Well that took care of it. I logged on as the local administrator and
acknowledged the EULA, and the EULA stopped displaying for all users.

Thanks!

Hi Bob,

I have the same problem and I logged in as the administrator. I am not sure
of how to write an entry in the registry?

Hi Matt,

If you're logged in as Administrator then when the
EULA is accepted the Office apps should do the registry
entry for you.

Hello Bob,

I am still getting the EULA acceptance pop up. I am the only user and I am
logged on as administrator.

Bob I am also unable to add printer software without an error saying I must
log on as administrator. I am log on as admin. and I am the only user. Why is
this happening? I still cannot get the EULA agreement to stop popping up.
