The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Office for Windows 95, version 7.0
SUMMARY
There are a number of switches that you can use with the Microsoft Office
for Windows 95 Setup to accomplish different tasks.
MORE INFORMATION
The following table lists each of the Microsoft Office Setup switches and
describes how the switch alters the Setup program's behavior. The arguments
used with these switches are not case sensitive.
This switch Instructs Setup to do this
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/A Run in administrative mode. This switch is only
available from original media (that is, not from an
/A image).
NOTE: The /A and /Q flags are mutually exclusive.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/B<type_num> Always suppress AppMainDlg by selecting one big
button list in the data field of the AppMainDlg
object. There should not be space after the B.
Invalid digit == noop.
The <type_num> argument refers to the type of Setup
that you want to perform.
1 = Typical
2 = Compact
3 = Custom
4 = Workstation/Run from CD-ROM
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/C "<COA>" Enter and validate the 20-character Product ID from
the OEM Certificate of Authorization, and replace
the user dialog box.
NOTE: The product ID is case-sensitive and you should
omit the hyphens when entering the number.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
/F This performs an administrative installation using
short file names (ideally for Novell servers that do
handle long file names). This switch specifies setup
to only use short file names (8.3) for all file names
and directories. Also it needs to be separate from
other switches.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/G[#] <filename> Generate the log file that provides details of the
installation. This switch needs a space between the
# and the file name with no quotation marks for the
file name.
Debug only: Use /G# to dump all error messages to
a log.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/K "<CD key>" Enter and validate the 10-digit key from the CD-ROM
sticker, and replace the user dialog box that would
appear without this validation. This switch needs a
space before the "CD key" and the key in quotes
with no hyphen.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/M# Specify the licensing information needed to activate
MLP. Setup increments the multilicense count on the
floppy disk by the number you specify.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/N "" Use Win.ini Copy Disincentive Name if it exists,
otherwise prompt the user.
NOTE: This switch is not useful with /A.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/N "<name>" Use Win.ini Copy Disincentive Org if it exists,
otherwise use the <name> value.
NOTE: This switch is not useful with /A.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/O "" Use Win.ini Copy Disincentive Org if it exists,
otherwise prompt the user. This switch needs a space
after the O.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/O <org> Use Win.ini Copy Disincentive Org if it exists,
otherwise use the <org> value. This switch needs a
space after the O.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/Q [0|1|T] Run in quiet installation mode (batch mode—no UI).
Normally the Exit dialog box is still displayed (/Q
or /Q0).
/Q1 will suppress the Exit dialog box.
/QT will suppress all UI including the
background frame window and the copy gauge.
Assert failures will still show up in debug mode,
however.
NOTE: An administrator can modify the check box
state fields in the .STF file to generate a
customized batch mode setup.
NOTE: the /A and /Q flags are mutually exclusive.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/R Re-install the program.
NOTE: The /R and /U flags are mutually exclusive and
only make sense if you are running Setup in
maintenance mode.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/T <table file> Use a particular setup table file (STF). The default
is <filename>.STF, where <filename> is the eight-
letter file name of the executable file
(<filename>.exe). This switch needs a space between
the T and the table file. The full path of the .stf
file is recommended, especially in cases where the
.stf is not in the same directory as the setup.exe
program, as when installing from a CD-ROM.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/U[A] Uninstall the program. If /Q is also specified, the
user will not be prompted about removing shared
components by default. /UA will always remove shared
components without prompting the user.
NOTE: The /R and /U flags are mutually exclusive and
only make sense if you are running Setup in
maintenance mode.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/Y Do not copy files. This switch is useful when you
are trying to track down problems that occur after
the (time-consuming) step of copying the files.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/Z Optional UI hook DLL for replacement dialog boxes
(Consumer).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/? Display a usage message.
