SP3

[Guest]

Hello -

I am running Access 2000 in XP Professional. My database has become
corrupted and I determined, after studying the problem, that I need all
service packs.

I am really confused after going to Microsoft's site. Instead of just SP3,
I apparently need SP-1a and another service pack for Jet?

When taken to the page for the SP-1a, it says it is for Windows 2000, NT4,
etc. and doesn't mention XP.

Can anyone point me to the page(s) I'm supposed to download from and the
specific service packs I will need?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Hi, Sandy.

I determined, after studying the problem, that I need all
service packs.

For MS Office updates on the Micrososft.com Web download site, if Windows XP
isn't listed as a supported OS, then follow the instructions for Windows
2000. For automated scans and updates for Windows and Office, you may visit
the following Web pages:

http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/catalog/en/default.asp

http://office.microsoft.com/officeupdate/mainCatalog.aspx

You may also set Windows XP to automatically download and install any new
updates, too.

As a minimum for Office 2K, you need SP-1a, SP-3 (SP-3 includes SP-2), and a
security patch:

download a much, much larger file from the Internet, so be prepared.)

Depending upon your particular configuration, such as support for multiple
languages or Web server components, you may need additional updates, which
are available on the following Web page:

http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdate/CD010225771033.aspx

You also need Jet 4.0 SP-8 and MDAC 2.8 SP-1 (included in Windows XP SP-2)
installed. I'm not sure whether Windows XP SP-2 includes this Jet service
pack, but it won't hurt anything to install it again. Download
WindowsXP-KB829558-x86-ENU.exe from the following Web page:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=239114

Windows XP SP-2 may be downloaded from the following Web page:

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/sp2/default.mspx
