[THIN] Re: Streaming MYOB

Warren,
 
My sincerest thanks once more for your further input.
I was certain this wasnt supposed to be as troublesome as it has been as myob is typically a very easy install.
 
Regardless, im still having issues.
 
We dont have Office 2007 (just 2003 sp3)
I have removed the officelink and outlooksync
No linked profiles are configured
Quick Install is utilised.
 
Do you think it could be because we are usign the "demo installer" from the myob website?
 
Should I setup a BLANK windows machine to profile it on rather than the current environment or is it best practice to always profile the program on a machine that will be similar/identical to the server the program will be streamed onto?
 
Anyway I will continue to smash it out this end and see what happens, i am confident we will get a resolution, its just frustrating that something that is usually simple, still isnt working!!  :-)
 
Sincerely
James
