If this an XP machine just make sure you do a snapshot before doing it. You can roll it back if it fails. John W.

I suppose the worst that could happen is that I uninstall Office, reinstall, & do SP3.

Several days after I shipped it I got a call that every time the technician tried to save his work-order it marked it as complete and closed it. Not what it is supposed to do. I could not duplicate the problem, but remembered reading about a bit problem with ADP's and SQL server and SP3. So I upgraded my laptop to SP3 and lo and behold I could duplicate the problem. I tried Hotfix KB945674 and it corrected the problem. Like you I thought the way the hot fix worked was strange but it worked. I think what it does is install Access 2003 Runtime, that would upgrade MSAccess.exe and I guess a few other DLL's. Who cares, it works, so click away.

Should I just close my eyes and keep clicking Next?
