Office 2003 Service Pack 2! Oh Yeah

[Wesmosis]

Microsoft® Office 2003 Service Pack 2 contains significant security enhancements, in addition to stability and performance improvements. Some of the fixes included with SP2 have been previously released as separate updates. This service pack combines them into one update.

1- Slipstreaming Over SP1

2- Unattneded Install

3- Shrinking (Does the buckeyeXP Shrinker still works here?!)

4- Reg Tweaks

Nice segnalation ,thx

[Zxian]

Slipstreaming is the exact same as for SP1. Just change the file names appropriately and all goes well.

Unattended install as well.

Dunno about shrinking... I just compress.

Tweaks, probably the same. Just guessing though.

[Wesmosis]

thanx Zxian, I hope everything will be like the SP1 without big fuss

so who is the first one to make The Silent UA Office 2003 SP2 Installer?!

[Zxian]

Unless someone else is already done compressing an Office2003-SP2 source... me.

[Wesmosis]

So, basically SP2 for o2k3, is not adding any features, right?

[1boredguy]

wow, thanks for the heads up!

now i gotta reshrink my office... arrgh!

[Zxian]

@prathapml - I can't see any notice of new features. I haven't noticed any new ones either from having installed it on my current installation either.

If anyone finds Frontpage 2003 SP2 post the link plz.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

FP 2003 makes use of the same file/update as the main office2003 set. In other words, download #1 (the 104 MB file), thats the same SP2 update, to be used for both, the office2k3 CD1 (base) as well as CD2 (FP 2003).

[Lucius Snow]

Do you think we can keep the same Unattended.MST or do we have to rebuild one for SP2 ?

[prathapml]

Thanks Zxian.

Lucius Snow, the same MST can be used, no changes needed.

Here's the complete SP2 set of downloads. For administrators who need to update their Office 2003 install source (of the 5 CD set, i mean) - this is a comprehensive list.

Thanks a million prathapml! I was looking for the Project version.

a couple of things I noticed while trolling the microsoft office admin site...there is a new setup.exe for admin installs that changes the localsource settings...Also...read the whole article and it should be noted that sp2 DOES NOT include the latest Outlook Junk Email Update...you must add this to your slipstream process. Im actually going back to the CD I bought of Office 2003 and creating an admin install point and then slipping the updates (meaning it wont have SP1 on it already)
