Software Packaging: Microsoft Visio Viewer 2007

Wednesday, February 11th, 2009

Microsoft Visio is a common tool in a enterprise. The price tag for a single installation is significantly so you don’t want to add this to your default client installation. Microsoft provides a viewer for Visio drawings which are shown in IE.

The Visio 2007 Viewer allows anyone to view Visio drawings and diagrams (created with Visio 5.0, 2000, 2002, 2003, or 2007) inside their Internet Explorer version 5.0 or later Web browser.
Visio users can freely distribute Visio drawings and diagrams to team members, partners, customers, or others, even if the recipients do not have Visio installed on their computers. Internet Explorer also allows for printing, although this is limited to the portion of the drawing displayed.

I would like to script this add-on to all clients and therefore script is needed to automatically distribute this. You can use SMS or any other software distribution mechanism.

Vista Codec Package

Monday, March 17th, 2008

Last year I download and installed the Vista Codec Package; couple minutes ago I was trying to get one xvid screencast opened by Windows Media Player but it was not able to acquire the codec. Vista Codec Package includes all popular codec components like Xvid, DivX, AC3 and others which your default installation of Vista is missing.
