Applying the Office XP Clip Organizer update to an administrative installation point

You apply the Office XP Clip Organizer update to your administrative share by using a command line with specific parameters. The following table lists the MSP files included in this update.

Before you install the Office XP Clip Organizer update on either an administrative installation point or a stand-alone computer, the current installation of Office XP must be updated to version SP1.

---

 Note    For best results, the update should be applied from the computer that contains the administrative installation point. Make sure the files on the administrative installation point are not in use when you apply the update. Copy the updated administrative installation image to all installation points after you back up any custom transform, Setup.ini, or other custom files.

To apply the Office XP Clip Organizer update to an administrative installation point

1. Download Cag1001a.exe and double-click the file name to extract the MSP file.
2. Connect to the administrative installation point.

   Note that you must have write access to the administrative installation point on the server and the appropriate privileges to carry out the task.

3. On the Start menu, click Run and then type the command line for Windows Installer with the appropriate options for the Office XP Clip Organizer update. Use the following syntax:

   [start] msiexec /p [path\name of update MSP file] 
   /a [path\name of MSI file] 
   SHORTFILENAMES=TRUE /qb /L*v [path\name of log file]
   

The following table describes the command-line options.

Updating client computers from an administrative installation point

After you update your administrative installation point, you must recache and reinstall Office XP on existing client computers that use the administrative image. Any new client installations from the administrative installation image will automatically include the Office XP Clip Organizer update.

To update an existing client installation from an administrative installation point, run the following command line on the client computer:

start msiexec /i [path to updated .msi file on the admin image]
REINSTALL=[list of features] 
REINSTALLMODE=vomu /q

You can run this command line by creating a logon script, distributing it as a batch file, deploying it by using Systems Management Server, or using other software installation tools. The following table describes the command-line options.

For the Office XP Clip Organizer update, the value for [list of features] is as follows:

CAGFiles

Optionally, you can substitute the parameter REINSTALL=ALL to reinstall all Office XP components on the client computer.

---

 Note    If you originally installed Office XP on a client computer from an administrative installation point, you must follow the recache and repair procedure described above to update that client. If you update the client directly by using the end-user patch from the Office Update Web site, the client and administrative images become out-of-sync, which may cause future updates to fail.

As an alternative, you can deploy the Office XP Clip Organizer update within your organization by distributing the version for client computers from local servers. For more information about this strategy, see Distributing Office 2000 Client Updates to Users.

Applying the Office XP Clip Organizer update under Windows 2000 or Windows XP

If your administrative installation point and all of your client computers are running Microsoft Windows 2000 or Windows XP, you can use IntelliMirror® technology to manage the installation of the update.

---

 Note    Be sure to test all software updates in a controlled setting before modifying your administrative installation point or deploying the new version throughout your organization.

---

To deploy a QFE fix or update under Windows 2000 or Windows XP

1. Apply the update (MSP file) to the original Office administrative installation point.

   You will need to run the command line separately if you apply more than one MSP file to the administrative installation point — you cannot reference multiple MSP files on the same command line.

2. Open the Software Installation snap-in within the Group Policy Object (GPO) you are using to manage the existing Office installation.
3. In the details pane, right-click the Office package, point to All Tasks, and then click Redeploy application.

   The next time the Group Policy is applied to the designated users or computers, the updated files are copied to their computers.

Note that you can redeploy a package only if it is being managed by Group Policy — that is, only if you originally installed it by using IntelliMirror software installation and maintenance, or if you brought it into a managed state under Windows 2000 or Windows XP.
