<div align="left" style="text-align:left;"><font face="Geneva" size="+0" color="#000000" style="font-family:Geneva;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;">Hello,</font></div>
<br />
<div align="left" style="text-align:left;"><font face="Geneva" size="+0" color="#000000" style="font-family:Geneva;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;">I created a .dmg for Microsoft Office 2008 in Composer using the preinstalled software configuration. I then created a package where I attempted to capture the Office preferences. Specifically, I want to use the old .doc, .xls, .ppt file types. </font></div>
<br />
<div align="left" style="text-align:left;"><font face="Geneva" size="+0" color="#000000" style="font-family:Geneva;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;">The problem is that when I run the preferences .dmg when imaging a new machine it doesn't change the preferences. Office still uses the newer .docx file type. However, when I run the .dmg in self service, it does change the preferences.</font></div>
<br />
<div align="left" style="text-align:left;"><font face="Geneva" size="+0" color="#000000" style="font-family:Geneva;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;">I'm thinking the reason it doesn't work when imaging a new machine has something to do with the Office setup assistant that runs the first time you open one of the office apps. Does anyone know of a way to set the Office 2008 preferences when imaging a new machine?</font></div>
