Office 2007 Post sp2 updates download

[stev379]

Where can I download Office 2007 updates that were release after sp2?

I've Googled and searched all day and am not finding anything on MS's sites to obtain these updates. I had no problem doing this about a year ago even after the 4.24.2009 SP2 release date. It's easy enough to put them in the "Updates" folder, but it's impossible if I can't find them.

Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

When you go to the Windows Updates site and do a manual check for updates you should have an option to use Microsoft Updates instead of Windows Updates. If you select the Microsoft Updates option then that will scan your machine and reveal the usual updates but also any Office updates that you are missing.

Knowing what updates you require you can then go to

http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/Thanks.aspx?id=140

and search for the missing updates and download them.

If you are asking for every update released since Office 2007 SP2, then you could use the search term "office 2007" and pull up all the updates. You could then click on the results found "Last Updated" tab. Then you could download everything later than Office 2007 SP2.

Working on the above site requires that you login to your machine as an Administrative user.


You could also look at a similar machine running similar software and see what updates they have installed.

Thanks for the info.

I need all post SP2 updates in order to configure an install package and place the updates in the "Updates" folder.

When I go to the link(

http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/Thanks.aspx?id=140),

I get the message below. I've tried with IE8 and IE6 on multiple XP SP3 and Server 2003 machines.

I'm trying to track down an IE7 machine. Any suggestions on how to get around this message? Thanks!

Have you tried cleaning out you Temporary Internet Files folder, Cookies etc.etc. Are you logged on as an Administrator?

Is IE your Default Browser?

Does it make any difference if you add the site to the Trusted Sites?

Have you tried running IE with "No Add-ons" or even resetting IE back to Defaults.

Internet Explorer stops responding, stops working, or restarts [Guided help]:

Have you tried another user logon, or tried via "Safe Mode with Networking". Or if they all bomb, have you got another machine you can access?
