Microsoft Office 2007 unattended install prompts for product selection

I was creating a new MS Office 2007 unattended installation when I’ve been showed off with a prompt for selecting the product to install.

There was some options like:
- Microsoft Office Professional 2007
- Microsoft Office Professional 2007 – Portuguese Language Pack
- Microsoft Office Project 2007

This happened because Project 2007 installed first then Office 2007. So, for pass this through you need to specify the XML and admin file on Office 2007 silent install command line, for example:

C:\MSOffice2007\setup.exe /Config ProPlus.WW\config.xml /adminfile updates\setup.msp

You also need to make sure that in your config.xml file, the tag

<Configuration Product=”ProPlus”> it’s not commented like this <!–<Configuration Product=”ProPlus”> –>
