Default Windows Update on Vista is Wrong

I have Office 2003 on my Vista Home Premium. Yet Windows Update
wants to install SP1 for Office 2007. Won't that mess up my office
apps?



Do you have the following folder on your hard drive?

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12

...\Office10 = Office 2002/XP stuff
...\Office11 = Office 2003 stuff
...\Office12 = Office 2007 stuff

Maybe you installed components that are from Office 2007 (and work
for Office 2003). My guess is that the update site is trying to
update those Office 2007 components.

I'm still using Office 2002 which means that I have the ...\Office10
folder. However, I also have an ...\Office12 folder. Looks like it
has some converter tools under there from Office 2007 (or the
components are announcing themself as that version of Office but work
under prior versions).


Yep. Just wanted to make sure things were ok before I told it to
install.

Thanks to both of you.
