Description
The Microsoft Office 97 Service Pack 2 (SP2b) address a giant number of bugs in the Office suite. It provides support for the Euro curreny, addresses a range of Y2K issues & adds some new – but minor – functionality such as improved format converters. It is & a requirement of lots of Mirosoft security & Y2K fixes. SP2 was released in September 98, but disappeared soon afterwards due to a buggy installation process. It resurfaced again in Novermber 98 as SR-2a – with no additional features – but with improved installation reliabity. A year later SP2b appeared – but this has a catch: in the event you have SR-2a on your PC, it cannot be removed unless you uninstall Office. However, you cannot install SP2b over the top of SP2a. Fortunately, SP2b differs from SP2a in only one small ways: an Outlook Import/Export Date patch & the inclusion of Jet SP3 (a database optimiser).
