Chapter 3. Preparing to Deploy Office 2003
The Microsoft® Office 2003 Setup program uses Windows Installer technology, just as Office 2000 and Office XP did.

New to Office 2003 is the option to deploy from a copy of the Office 2003 CD and allow Setup to create a local installation source on users’ computers.
