The simplest option is to copy the Office installer disk to your hard
drive. Then from the disk copy run Setup.Exe. Take the Modify or
Add-Remove features. You'll have to navigate around to find the
importer function ( I use an older version of Office). After you make
the change Office will remember the install folder location on your
drive and any future requests for features should run automatically.
