Creating the Transform file with the Custom Installation Wizard Assuming you've already installed the ORK, perform the following steps to create the Transform file with the CIW:

1. From the Start menu, click Applications | Microsoft Office Tools | Microsoft Office 2000 Resource Kit Tools, and then click Custom Installation Wizard. This begins the CIW. The entire wizard is 17 pages long, so we'll cover the pages specific to Outlook 2000 in more detail than the others. Click Next to move to the next page.
2. At the Open The MSI File page. Type in the UNC path to the Data1.msi file that is contained in the administrative install share you installed earlier. Click Next to continue.
3. Choose Do Not Open An Existing MSI File and click Next. You'll then see the Select The MST File To Save page. Type in a local path. When you've completed the wizard, you'll move the .mst file to the same folder where the Setup.exe file is located in the administrative installation share. Click Next.
4. The Specify Default Path And Organisation page will appear. Use the default installation path, which is \Program Files\Microsoft Office. You also have the opportunity to include your organisation's name. Click Next to continue.
5. At the Remove Previous Versions page, choose Default Setup Behavior to remove all previous versions of Office applications. However, if you want to keep a previous version of an Office application, choose Remove The Following Versions Of Microsoft Office Applications, and specify the files to remove, as shown in the figure. Click Next to continue.
6. The Set Feature Installation States page will appear. Since we want to install Outlook 2000 only, click Microsoft Office at the top of the hierarchy and then click Not Available. Click the Microsoft Outlook For Windows icon and Run All From My Computer. If you'd like to install other applications, just click the application icon and select the appropriate command. Click Next to proceed.
7. On the customise Default Application Settings page, select Do Not customise; Use Microsoft Default Values. Also, select the Migrate User Settings check box. Click Next.
8. On the Add Files To The Installation page, you can add additional files to install with Office. If you don't want to add any other files, click Next.
9. On the Add Registry Entries page, you have the option to add new registry entries. If you don't need to include additional registry entries, click Next to continue.
10. On the Add, Modify, Or Remove Shortcuts page, you can modify or remove Office shortcuts. Select the check box for Create Windows Installer Shortcuts If Supported. Click Next to continue.
11. On the Identify Additional Servers page, you can include other locations where copies of the administrative installation share can be found. You can copy the original installation share to other machines on the network. As mentioned earlier, including additional servers provides fault tolerance for the administrative installation share. Note that while this provides fault tolerance, it doesn't provide load balancing. The alternate servers will be used for Install On Demand and application self-repair in the event that the original server is unavailable. Click Next to continue.
12. On the Add Installations And Run Programs page, you can add programs that will run after the installation of Office completes. If you don't want to add any new programs, click Next.
13. On the customise Outlook Installation Options page, you can configure exactly how you want Outlook to work on users' computers. Note that you have two options:

• Do Not customise Outlook Profile And Account Information -- If you choose this option, the user will be asked to configure his or her own Outlook Profile.
• customise Outlook Profile And Account Information -- In the Configuration Type drop-down list, you can use either the Corporate Or Workgroup Settings or the Internet Only Settings. Almost all companies will use the Corporate Or Workgroup Settings because the Internet Only Settings are severely limited.

It's better to select the second option because the profile, and the services included in the profile, will be automatically configured for the user.
