registering MSoffice

[andrew]

hi,
I have 1 PC setup with ms office2003.
there will be lots of people using the pc for the word, excel, powerpoint.
the disturbing stuff is that everytime a distict user is login and want to
use office, it always want to register itself (reding from source
installation files, etc etc)

Is it possible to register for 1 time only and the other users don't have to
go through the registering process again?

please help...

thanks

Only if you have all people use the same account to log in. Each profile
maintains individual settings and template, which of course will require
it to be set up when a new account is used.

that what I want to eliminate.
is there any other way to copy the specific profile file available to all
user?
if not, could it be done in background?

 

[Bob I]

What is it you want to eliminate? Since each user has a different name
and account data, different registry entries, etc. it would be incorrect
if you copied one account to another. In the "background" of what?
Until the user logs on, the system doesn't know that Office isn't setup.

How do you have it installed?

I installed it using local administrator account, everything in full (run in
my computer) instead of the default (install on first use).
Somewhere I read that there is something called custom installation that
would allow everyone (who login) to use the installed MsOffice without the
need to re-register.But I couldm't find this on the installation, nor
anywhere on the CD.

I want to eliminate the need for user(s) to click on the warning before they
can use the Office.
Probably it will still need to re-register, but in the system background so
the user(s) don't see it?
I had copied the files needed for the process on the local hardrive so
MsOffice would search on that folder.

thanks
