Service Pack for Office 2003
Service Pack 1 for Office 2003 came out about a week ago. I'm always
hesitant to install new service packs. Does anyone have any info or experience with this service pack? Thanks, Ross Payne

Service Pack for Office 2003

It fixes quite a few bugs - many that you probably haven't experienced! As far as Word, Excel and Outlook go, I have not experienced any problems at all. -- Terry Farrell - Word MVP http://word.mvps.org/ "Ross Payne" wrote in message ... : Service Pack 1 for Office 2003 came out about a week ago.

Service Pack for Office 2003
I can't speak yet to my experience using it (though so far have noticed no
changes except that, like all Outlook updates, it hijacks my default email client selection), but I can speak vociferously to my experience in downloading it. After trying and failing numerous times with Office Update, I downloaded the Office and OneNote SPs manually and found that this worked very smoothly. The OneNote download was interrupted numerous times (I kept getting messages saying the server was reset), but whenever I restarted the download, it resumed where it had left off, and I got a progress indicator on the Taskbar (which you don't with Office Update), and the Office SP downloaded with no interruptions at all (amazing for a one-hour DL). One additional advantage to this method is that I could continue working in Office and leave my AV enabled during the download; I just had to quit Word and disable NAV before installing the updates. -- Suzanne S.
