Hi David,

I have a question about the SP2 update - more particularly about LIS.

This Wednesday morning when I checked the MS Update site there were 2 updates
available - the KB904631 junk filter and Office 2003 SP2.

I selected both for installation. I was told that the download would be pretty
big so I went off to do something else and checked back some time later. The
junk filter had installed but there was a pop-up screen saying that the SP2
installation had failed.

I tried it again. The installation bar went all the way across the screen but
after it reached the end the pop-up window appeared saying that the installation
had failed. I clicked on the red cross on the update history screen and found
that the error was 0x51F. I dug around and found a page headed "Office Update
fails to install with error 0x51F. That said to download a file called
LisTool.exe. I ran that and extracted the files LisTool.exe and LisTool.chm and
then ran LisTool.exe to disable LIS for Office.

I then tried the update again but this time it failed with error 0x8024002c and
a pop-up about not being able to find PRO11N.MSI. I checked both C: and D:
drives and the file was not to be found on either drive.

I then tried the update again and this time a download started for 136MB
beginning at 45MB (maybe the 34MB mentioned above was wrong). THIS time the
installation completed satisfactorily.

LIS doesn't seem to have been re-enabled when the update installation completed
satisfactorily. I ran LisTool and it had empty tick boxes for both Office and
removing hidden data. I am not sure if I should re-enable one or both of these
again. My gut instinct is that they should be left not enabled. Would you
please advise me on this?

After the full download, the install was successful but it still required my

my other Office programs are 2002 and were not involved in the update.

Yes, the full version still required the FP disk, then during the Office
upgrade it also asked for the O2K3 disk, but then crashed with some
incomprehensible message. A second run skipped over the FP upgrade,
then did the Office Pro upgrade without asking for the disk.

All is well now, but it took me a couple of hours to do this upgrade.
