Remember reimaging rights? You get that with your license. Now under most 
circumstances these would not be applicable as Office Pro is different to Pro 
Plus, but from Action Pack they are the same product.

You could put in a KMS server to sort the activation - and then just use the 
console to verify the counts in case anyone asks.

Well, bingo.  Did not realize that - and I looked hard for a solution.  I'll 
try that.

On my 4th agent with MS Licensing and they can't answer the question.  I'll 
post back if I get a response.

Thanks,
Sam

You would need to use the proper licensing qty's for each, but for the issue of 
not being able to deploy, the Office Customization Tool isn't included in all 
media. So just download it from MS and then you can deploy. Explained here:

So, with MAPS, a company gets 10 licenses for Office 2010 (For example).

However, the media they give you is retail, and cannot be installed silently 
through the normal deployment methods we have grown used to and learned to 
love.  I would have to walk to each workstation and do a GUI install.

Say I have 20 users; own 10 VL licenses, and 10 MAPs.  Can I use VL Media to 
install office for all 20 users?  Is a license a license in this sense?

I have asked a MAPs specialist and they said they don't answer licensing 
questions.  Um, ok.

What would you guys do?  Trying to keep things legit here.

Thanks,
Sam
