Cannot install Office 2007 SP2 upgrade
There are numerous thread which had already discussed on this issue, but I am creating new for getting better answers and explaining my problem. I am using Office 2007. I had updated that to SP2. The file is quiet large size to download. Around 290MB is big enough and takes time also. But when the update is downloaded it gave a error message at the time of setup. It was related to some data base corruption issue. I do not remember the error clearly. I had re-installed Office 2007 back again thought it would be some internal error. But still the error is intact. I had sent a error report and yet not received any kind of update on it. Now I do not want remove office back again, as I worry this will not work properly. The update looks buggy and has generated more error in the system. Some of them are listed below. I am sure this error is common with many other also. How to fix this and get SP2 installed properly in the system.

Re: Cannot install Office 2007 SP2 upgrade
The update looks buggy. Try to run the setup in Admin account once and if you have Office installation cd keep that in your DVD drive. Other than using the Automatic update mode you can go with manual update download. The below link is of a small fix that can provide you help to deal with error. Just download and run that. You will find a log file in c drive which will give you detailed information on the update issue. You can then send the log file to Microsoft to diagnose the issue. Sometime the issue is also related to Windows installer. We can do nothing in that. In Windows Vista the installer version is 3.1. If your system has lower than that, then update will not work. The issue is not noticed in Vista system as they have the right installer. To find the installer version go ton Start > Run and type msiexec/? in that and hit enter. You will find the version on top. Try to get the most latest version of installer only and then run the update.
