MSP Regfile reverted by SP2

K

We roll out our office 2007 Pro by putting one .msp customized install in the
Updates folder and then we update it to SP2 by putting the SP2 .msp files in
that same updates folder.

Here is my issue....

We are shutting off sandbox mode by changing the sandbox mode registry entry
to 2. (I have added this registry entry into the reg section of my custom
install .msp.) We need to do this because of some legacy databases that
can't run reports if the sandbox mode is enabled. We know that the code can
be run differently, but the people in charge of those particular databases
aren't in a position to fix that right now.

What happens is sandbox mode gets turned back on once SP2 rolls after the
install. We could then push a reg file to turn it off again, but we are
running both 2002 and 2007 databases at this time and every time you go
between the old and the new, that small install happens. That uses the
cashed install on the C:\ drive and turns Sandbox mode back on.

My question is: What do we do to keep Sandbox mode disabled? Is there a
way to truly slip stream SP2 so that the Customization file affects SP2 and
then it wouldn't run as an update and turn sandbox mode back on? Any
suggestions you might have would be hugely appreciated!

Thank you in advance for your time!
