NEW  Deploying the Office Web Client

The Office Web Client setup package is available as a single executable file for both 32-bit and 64-bit computers. On 64-bit computers, it will install both the 32-bit and 64-bit components so that the setup does not need to be run twice.

Deploying the Office Web Client can be done in several ways:

• Manually by selecting the Office Web Client Setup component in the TeamWork setup wizard as described in Installing the client components.
• Manually by downloading the setup package from a local server and running the setup program. By default, the TeamWork setup program copies the Office Web Client installation package to a shared subfolder of the Web Access application at C:\Inetpub\AMM\Res\OWC. It also copies a simple web page that contains instructions to user on how to download and run the setup package. It then sets this location as a hyperlink that appears in the viewer pane for users who do not yet have it installed. The users can click the hyperlink to download the package and install it for themselves.
• Centrally with Active Directory Services as follows.

The Office Web Client setup package can be unpacked by running it from a command line with the /a command-line switch to perform an administrative installation. This results in an installable .msi file with the language transform specified by the TRANSFORMS argument applied. The .msi file can then be deployed as usual with Active Directory Services.
