MS Access Forum / Developer Toolkits / May 2005Access 2003 Runtime SP1
SP1 says it applies to Microsoft? Office Access 2003 Runtime. Is there anywhere to get a version of the msi/cab runtime installer that are already at SP1 level? The patch takes a while to run so I'd rather have a pre-patched version than install the runtime then run the patch. Andrew, Will be interested in a reply to this as well. From my experience, MS don't give us this support but it would make life so much easier for us if they did. Over to you MS!! Regards Di > SP1 says it applies to Microsoft?

Hello Andrew, Di Cook! Did anyone of you come across an Access 2003 Runtime MSI including sp yet? Because I am stuck with exacltly the same problem here. Thanks in advance, Herber -- t2bck@keba.co Visit - http://www.officehelp.in | http://www.officehelp.in/index/index.php Using the normal service pack for office will update the Access runtime. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=9C51D3A6-7CB1-4F61-837E -5F938254FC47&displaylang=en look into MST files, they are transform files for MSI, that allow for customisation of MSI packages it maybe your way forward. a good post on slipstreaming SP1 (building into installation media) http://www.msfn.org/comments.php?catid=1&id=9061 I have heard that if you update the computer to SP1 that the Office Developer Extentions is installed on, then the package created has SP1 built into it, I have not tried this, but worth a try.

However I already tried to slipstream AccessRT.MSI. Actually I tried 2 things: 1) I tried to create an administrative installation point: -msiexec /a AccessRT.MSI- The idea was to update the installation point with the fil MAINSP1ff.MSP, just as described by Micrososft. But creating an administrative installation point did not work, meanin nothing happened at all. And as I opened the MSI file itself I saw tha there were no custom actions for an administrative installation Therefore you can't create an administrative installation point fo Access Runtime. 2) I tried to update the MSI directly via -msiexec /a AccessRT.MSI /p MAINSP1ff.MSP- Needless to say that didn't work either (after that command the versio of msaccess.exe was still the same). So what options do I have, besides from installing everything in tw steps instead of just one? And further inputs are very much appreciated! Regards, Herber -- t2bck@keba.co Visit - http://www.officehelp.in | http://www.officehelp.in/index/index.php Have you tried my last paragraph of my original response? I have heard that if you update the computer to SP1 that the Office Developer Extentions is installed on, then the package created has SP1 built into it, I have not tried this, but worth a try. SignatureRegards Alex White MCDBA MCSE http://www.intralan.co.uk > Hello Alex! > [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] > Regards, > Herbert Hello Alex! No I haven't tried that, because "Access Developer Extensions" does no install/copy the AccessRT.MSI file to the computer. Hence installin Office 2003 SP1 will not have any affect. Due to the MS article at http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HA011208861033.aspx Access Runtime comes with the retail version of Access 2003, which i correct. But even if you fully install Access 2003 the fil AccessRT.MSI is not installed/copied. So again, installing Office 200 SP1 afterwards won't help here. It is more likely MS either forgot or ignored the possibility that som users would want to roll out Access 2003 Runtime including Service Pac 1 in one piece. That is, of course, unless I am totally wrong and completely missin the point .... Thanks a lot for your effort/time, Herber -- t2bck@keba.co Visit - http://www.officehelp.in | http://www.officehelp.in/index/index.php |
