Office 365 In Base Image

All

I have been trying to get O365 (Office 2016 ProPlus) working in our base image, and now have it to the point were I am happy with it.

I now want to build AppStacks for Visio, Project and Visio+Project. I am being told this is not possible as this would be considered as two click to Run packages on the same computer which is NOT supported....

This means that I will need to create everything as AppStacks, and this brings its own set of issues... Does anyone have the above solution working and is it supported?

Thanks in advance

LFC

Yeah, your response isn't helpful.  According to the KB:

You can't mix msi and click-to-run

You can't install two products that use different version of the Click-To-Run technology

Nowhere does it say you can't install office on the base image and then install Visio or Project Pro as an appstack, but as far as I can tell this doesn't actually work.
