You can install Office with all the bells and whisles and then use Group
Policy template for MS Office to customize what users get. Adm templates for
office are available from www.thethin.net

Subject: [THIN] Deploying Software to User Groups
Wondering, specifically with Microsoft Office products in mind, if the other
Admins on the list have the same issues as I.
I have installed Office 2000 (using the default transform file on
thethin.net) across my 2000 SP3 XP FR3 Terminal Server Farm (sized for 300
concurrent users). I have troubles with differing groups of users needing
certain add-ons to Office applications (like Binder) while others do not. I
have users who are light-duty users that typically read e-mail, type an
occasional Word doc, while I have other users that bang on each and every
Office application hard and seem to find a variety of little issues that
affect their productivity.
My goal is to have as many users use Office across Citrix as possible to
minimize code/update issues, it just seems there are always users with
special needs that want their own local installs. Are power users and
executives typically given local installs in a similar situation?
Just wondering if there are others in the same situation and could what they
do.....thanks!
