Did you use the "transform" file to install? I didn't think you could install without it, but if you did use it, it should have replaced all the splash screens with more bandwidth-friendly versions.
If you are wanting to get rid of those, Sorry I have no more info to offer!
To remove the splash screen from Word 2000 SR-1 or SR-1a, create a new shortcut and add " /q" (<space>/q) to the end of the command line. If you don't have SR-1 or SR-1a, download the service pack at http//office.microsoft.com/downloads/2000/o2ksr1ddl.aspx
Simply adding " /q" to the existing shortcut target line may not work.
...And for Excel 2000 you have to add a " /e" after the shortcut.
For Powerpoint 2000 i haven't found yet a parameter.
For Outlook 2000 you can add a lot of different parameters, but no one to disable the splash screen. Maybe it is possible over the registry (I saw it for Outlook Express).
