Pay no attention to the fellows wrestling in the mud down below the bridge
there. Pay no attention to me, if you like.

MS, though, has this to say about it:

"Because Office service packs are cumulative, you do not have to install
Service Pack 1 before you install Service Pack 2. Service Pack 2 includes all
of the fixes that were included in Service Pack 1."

Agreed....which is why I don't know why Windows Updates thinks I need Office
2007 Sp1...

Can't help you on that one; I tend to let Windows Updates recommend whatever it
likes (and ignore it while I go and do whatever I feel I really *need*).

What happens if you download the Office SP2 update and apply it "manuallY"
rather than letting Windows Update handle things?

If you manually apply Office SP2, Windows Updates still reports SP1 needs to
be installed. It doesn't make any sense...
