Roaming Profiles

i have 2 supervisors who need to roam throughout the company from time to
time. Roaming profiles work great except for office. The supervisors
primary machines have office 2k3 std and the machines they roam to do not
have office. How would I go about getting office to work without installing
it on the machines that currently do not have office?

Thank You

Can I run office from the server? if so how do i do it?

In order to use MS Office, it must first be installed on the machine that
one desires to use it on.
You can use Group Policy to include MS Office in their roaming profiles and
"push" install MS Office onto any machine that they log onto.
Doing so will install MS Office _only_ for the Supervisor's profiles; Office
will remain unavailable to other users.
Points to consider:
1. You will have to ensure that you have the appropriate licenses.
2. If you have questions as to how to "push out" software via Group
Policy,
visit the Group Policy gurus here:
