Microsoft Office 97

This is a silent installer and uninstaller for Microsoft Office 97 Professional.

Change YOURCDKEYHERE to your CD Key! As far as I know there is now ordinary update process, so I left it out. Consider the switch for changing Office Elements afterwards.

Customisation

Here is a German Version for the setup.exe switches. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/508433/de

For a special installation e.g. without the Shortcut Bar download setupniw.exe here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/232967/en-us Install the Network Installation Wizard, open the off97pro.stf file from the CD Root Dir and set up everything to your needs. I switched my off97pro.stf file with the existing one. If you need various install profiles check out http://support.microsoft.com/kb/158281/en-us.
