More info?)
Its the full version of Office 2003, but there's probably some minor quirks
to it because its from the Action Pack. The program (If installed normally
thourgh the MSI) work perfectly fine.
I wanted to customize office so the users wouldn't have to setup their own
profile. I'll find some workaround and post my results here.
Thanks again for responding to my post.
