Hi Steffany,
You'll need one Office Admin point for each Edition
of Office you're using (Professional, Standard,
Small Business Edition). As you have all Professional
licenses you should need only one Office Admin Point,
but you can have multiple MSTs and CMWs setup to use for
any given Admin Point. These two resources may be of help:
Office 2003 Resource Kit (http://microsoft.com/office/ork )

Hi Bob!
Thanx, this helped a lot!
Since this worked fine, I have one more question..
As I wrote I have one administrative installation point, I
have made one MST file customizing Word, Excel and
PowerPoint (Basic installation). I have made a .CMW file
for distribution of Outlook and a .CMW file for
distribution of Access. The installation of Outlook and
Access after the basic installation works fine if I
install it to the same PC.
What if I would like to have only Outlook on one computer,
and maybe a couple weeks after installing Outlook I would
like to install the rest of Office.. Do I have to make a
new administrative installation point, make a MST file
for distribution of Outlook and make a CMW for the basic
installation? How would you do this? Could you some how
use the same administrative installation point? Any tips
on how to set this up?
About licenses - I have the Pro license.. :-)
Thanx! >>
