Office System 2003 Service Pack 2 released

[Pat Willener]

After the full download, the install was successful but it still required my
FrontPage 2003 CD. I guess the file is not really full of everything. All
my other Office programs are 2002 and were not involved in the update.

Ak

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.

The full download suggested here worked almost perfectly for me. I was
receiving error code 0x530. And ironically, just like Flowers, I tried to
install 8 previous times. I did most of the items listed in the Knowledge
Base without success during those for previous attempts.
I did get the "unexpected version" error after the installation was
complete, but based on the experience recounted by others in this forum,
rebooted. Despite the error message, the service pack had installed.
Thanks so much!
BTW, this is one of the few times I've had problems with Microsoft update.
