This note is applied to Visio Professional 2007 SP1.
To suppress the following prompt which displays every time you launch the application:
****************************************************

****************************************************
Solution: add the following registry key while you create your msp file.
[HKCU\Software\Microsoft\office\12.0\Visio\Application]
XMLLiteNoPrompt = DWword 00000001
Pretty standard if done with the Office Customization Tool. We added the following registry keys to get rid of the privacy option popup...
- [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\General]
"Authorized"=dword:00009904
"ShownOptIn"=dword:00000001
- [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\User Settings\Product code]
"Count"=dword:00000001
Add property HIDEUPDATEUI=True to stop users getting prompted to connect to MS Auto-Update.
If you plan to deploy via Group Policy then bear in mind that testing your customised Setup.XML file using MSIEXEC /I to fire off the MSI on a test machine will not work, the MSI will just bomb out giving "Error 1713: Setup cannot install one of the required products for Microsoft Office Visio <Standard/Professional> 2007". This doesn't mean you've done anything wrong, its because you're not calling the MSI from the Setup.exe. However, it will still work via a GPO direct from the MSI due to a custom action inside the MSI that recoginises a GPO deployment and allows it to run without the setup.exe initiating it.
You can get around this when running via msiexec /i by adding the property LAUNCHEDBYSETUPEXE=1
Run the OCT wizard to create your MSP with your company's settings (you set the level of user interaction here:
setup /admin
Save the MSP as "1_Custom.msp"
Copy the MSP to the "updates" folder.
To slipstream the SP1 package, download it from Microsoft:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=496BC7C1-ABD7-4BC7-8366-B8A4CC85803B&displayLang=en
Extract the MSPs:
visio2007sp1-kb937155-fullfile-en-us.exe /extract
Place the MSPs you wish to use in the updates folder. (Most will use VisioWWsp1.msp).
The "Welcome to the 2007 Microsoft Office system" dialog box shows up on first launch of the application, event if this is disabled through the Office Customization Tool.
