Office 2007 Customization Tool
Office 2007 Customization Tool
To perform an administrative installation use the "setup.exe /admin" switch, which opens the Office Customization tool. If you receive an error that components are missing, check that you have the admin folder at the root of your media. Some versions don't have this folder so administrative setup isn't possible.
You use the Office Customization Tool (OCT) to customize an installation of the 2007 Microsoft Office system. The OCT is part of the Setup program and is the recommended tool for most customizations. You run the OCT by typing setup.exe /admin on the command line.
When you run the OCT, you choose to create a new Setup customization (MSP) file or to open an existing MSP file. If you are creating a new file, the OCT displays a list of the products available on the network installation point. You must select a single product that you want to customize.
Using the OCT, you customize Office and save your customizations in a Setup customization MSP file. You place the file in the Updates folder on the network installation point. When you install Office, Setup looks for a Setup customization file in the Updates folder and applies the customizations. The Updates folder can only be used for deploying software patches during an initial installation of 2007 Office system.
As an alternative to placing the customization MSP file in the Updates folder, you can use the Setup command-line option /adminfile to specify the fully-qualified path to the location of the MSP file. For example, type: setup.exe /adminfile \\server\share\mychanges\custom.msp.
Select Save on the File menu to save the Setup customization file before you exit the OCT.
The OCT includes four sections: Setup, Features, Additional Content, and Outlook. Each section contains several pages of options. When you change an option on a page, the page name in the left pane changes to bold. If you open an existing Setup customization file, the bold page names indicate where options are customized.
