Office Professional 2007 Service Packs

Billy Long Bolt

I am running Windows 7 RC 64bit and installed Office Pro 2007. Works fine,
but windows update is only offering SP2 not SP1. Is it a pre-requisite to
have SP1 installed before installing SP2? If so, any idea as to why SP1 is
not showing in windows update?

Anyone any thoughts on this?

From MS Web site:

"The 2007 Microsoft Office Suite Service Pack 2 (SP2) provides customers
with the latest updates to the 2007 Office suite (the products that are
affected by this update are listed below). This download includes two types
of fixes:
Previously unreleased fixes that were made specifically for this service
pack.
In addition to general product fixes, this includes improvements in
stability, performance, and security.

You can find out more information in Knowledge Base Article 953195, where
product-specific changes are described.
All of the Public Updates, Security Updates, Cumulative Updates, and
Hotfixes released through February 2009.

Before installing this service pack, you are strongly encouraged to read
953195, which describes some big improvements introduced by SP2, and also
calls out some important information that you should be aware of before
installing. "


It appears from this that you don't need the SP1 installed prior to SP2
being installed.

However, SP1 can be downloaded here:
