Incorrect Office Updates in Microsoft Update
Personally I let MSUpdate do its own thing for critical updates
"Mike D." wrote in message ... If you manually apply Office SP2, Windows Updates still reports SP1 needs to be installed. It doesn't make any sense... "Steve Rindsberg" wrote in message ... In article , Mike D. wrote: Agreed....which is why I don't know why Windows Updates thinks I need Office 2007 Sp1... Can't help you on that one; I tend to let Windows Updates recommend whatever it likes (and ignore it while I go and do whatever I feel I really *need*). What happens if you download the Office SP2 update and apply it "manuallY" rather than letting Windows Update handle things? "Steve Rindsberg" wrote in message ... Does anyone know how to 1) have Office SP2 show up as a needed update instead of SP1, and 2) how to configure Windows Update to show that no SP is needed after SP2 is installed? Pay no attention to the fellows wrestling in the mud down below the bridge there. Pay no attention to me, if you like. MS, though, has this to say about it: "Because Office service packs are cumulative, you do not have to install Service Pack 1 before you install Service Pack 2. Service Pack 2 includes all of the fixes that were included in Service Pack 1." Quoted from this article: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=953195 |

Simplest thing might be to go ahead and apply SP1 then SP2 in order. See if making it happy makes it happy. "Steve Rindsberg" wrote in message ...
