Office 2007 Update on Vista Business

[Jeffrey]

Automatic update or manual update is never able to install Office 2007
updates - I am using Vista Business - I have followed the instructions for
error messages and always get nowhere - It always downloads, says it is
installing and then always says failed.

Are you logged on with Administrator Rights when you try to install the
updates?

Yes, l am logged on with Administration rights. After my original post, I
tried to download the Service Pack update direct from Microsoft web site and
after downloading everything, installing, etc. it failed also.
