Win XP Pro, SP2 with all critical updates Running as a user with administrator privileges
Trying to install OpenOffice.org for multi-user environment from downloaded file Ooo_1.9.122_Win32Intel_install.zip. Extracted to folder, per Instructions for Installing and Setting Up OpenOffice.org 1.1.x Setup Guide gives same instructions. The instructions indicate that installing with the multi-user option is a little more complicated, but this is more than a little The command line c:\<folder>\SRC680_m122_native_packed-1_en-US.8941\setup /net (which is not exactly as specified in install instructions but is accurate for what I got when I extracted the downloaded file) returns an error from Windows Installer: Invalid command line argument. Consult the Windows Installer SDK for detailed command line help. Following the FAQ Collaboration to here http://user-faq.openoffice.org/new-faq/faqinstall/faqinstall/226.html and using -net instead returned the same error. I understand the error message (it doesnt like the /net), but since Ive no clue what the Windows Installer SDK might be, or how to consult it, I am asking what is the correct command line syntax/argument to install this version of OpenOffice.org to Windows in a multi-user environment? Why wouldnt a multi-user environment be the default installation mode for any OS that uses it? If I missed a different set of installation instructions that would have solved this, I apologize for taking up your time. Thank you, Kathy OBrien
