Install Office from the command line

Greetings,

I am trying to install Microsoft Office from the command line so I can make it part of a script. I'm trying to just cp -R the Office folder to my Applications folder. When I try to run the Office applications afterwards, I get an unexpected error while loading the Microsoft Framework library. Can someone tell me why I get different results from cp'ing the folder than when I click and drag it?

Thank you.

-Mike

Not sure it will work, but cp isn't the most modern of copy tools for command line.

Try using 'ditto', check the man page for relevant flags.
