Ascii2 Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 (edited) Issue:How can one find all updates for Microsoft Office 2000 with Service Pack 3; Microsoft Office XP with Service Pack 3; Microsoft Office 2003 with Service Pack 3; Microsoft Office File Converter Pack; and Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint 2007 with Service Pack 2 that, once installed, would yield fully updated Microsoft Office binaries?I am interested in both security updates and other updates that may improve performance or modify features.Other Information:I have noticed the existence of Microsoft Security Bulletin Search ( http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/Current.aspx ) and the Downloads for Office 2000 ( http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/download...0224971033.aspx ), Downloads for Office XP ( http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/download...0224911033.aspx ), and Downloads for Office 2003 ( http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/download...0224941033.aspx ) web pages.Microsoft Security Bulletin Search yields different update results as the "Downloads for Office ..." pages.

TwoJ Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 you can check out signet's office updater and my office hotpacks which should contain all updates ;check it out herehttp://www.siginetsoftware.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=20however it is for office xp forward, if you want office 2000 then i believe you need to use mara's office slipstreamerthe updates only deal with 'microsoft updates' and don't include addition plug-ins and such, but its already a good start.You can do a 'Direct Integration' good for non-corporate (vlk) discs or admin installs, good for corp discs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ascii2 Posted January 10, 2010 Author Share Posted January 10, 2010 Do the *.MSP files used to update Microsoft Office products contain updated registry information? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benners Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Do the *.MSP files used to update Microsoft Office products contain updated registry information?Yes. The msp files contain information that is used for the registry entries. When slipstreamed the information isn't added but is needed as MU checks for it to find out if an update is installed. The Integrator uses this information to create a reg file and it is imported after the Office setup so the updates are registered as installed.
