Hi,Will the end-users (Information Workers, Designers, Developers, Admin) miss out any features of MOSS 2007, if I don't install MS Office on the Windows Server where SharePoint is installed?Note that they will be already having MS Office (and other required tools - SSPD, InfoPath etc) on their individual workstation.Thanks,Kamlesh

Hi,as far as I know, there is no need to install MS Office on the SharePoint ServerYou will not miss out any features if not installedBest Regards, Ammar MCT http://ahmed-ammar.blogspot.com Posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

You are a bit over-cautious with the "as far as I know", Ahmed. There is no reason for installing Office programs on the server if all the users have Office on their client system. (I have been known to have SPD on my *test* SP Server VMs but that's only so I can test SPD using a single VM on a Mac.)FAQ sites: (SP 2010) http://wssv4faq.mindsharp.com; (v3) http://wssv3faq.mindsharp.com and (WSS 2.0) http://wssv2faq.mindsharp.com Complete Book Lists (incl. foreign language) on each site.

Thanks Mikebut my 'far' is not as much as you :)Best Regards, Ammar MCT http://ahmed-ammar.blogspot.com Posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

Thanks Ahmed/Mike. This would save 1 License Cost for MS Office installation ;-)Have a great weekend.Regards,Kamlesh
