Overview

This white paper covers the advantages of deploying Office 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2) by using the local installation source with client updating, OHotfix.exe, and OHotfix.ini; the new update capability with Microsoft® Windows® Installer 3.x; and some overall update deployment best practices. This white paper covers the use of the Local Installation Source Tool (LISTool.exe) to enable or move the local installation source without user intervention. The "Troubleshooting" section covers common Office 2003 SP2 installation error messages and Windows Installer logging techniques. This white paper does not discuss service pack installation mechanisms at the Windows Installer level. Information about update functionality can be found in the "Microsoft Office XP Update Deployment" white paper (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/330043). The Office update mechanism has not changed significantly from Office XP.
