Packaging Updates

[Mark]

Recently I've downloaded 10+ stand alone microsoft
updates. I am needing to update several computers that do
not have internet connections and am wondering if there is
a utility that can package the individual updates into one
general .exe or something along those lines that would
enable me to install them without rebooting after each
update is applied.


Thanks,
Mark

This is not advisable. The way to do what you want is to install the bootstrap executable for hotfixes. I can't recall the name right now. The reason why I forgot it is that I used to apply hotfixes in the way you describe and found it undesireable so I have forgotten. The reason why it is not advisable is because you can end up with file version mismatches. Especially MDAC version mismatches which can leave the system in a precarious state.
