MBSA and Office 2007 SP3

I have seen similar problems descriped on this forum. (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/security/en-US/f842e040-c04a-4819-bb63-8e0dff7759ab/mbsa-and-windows-update-discrepancy)
I have several Windows XP machines which is to connected to my full updated WSUS server.
Office 2007 SP3 is installed on the clients and all needed patches is confirmed installed/updated by the WSUS server including the Office 2007 SP3.
When I run MSBA 2.2 against one of the clients, MBSA state that Office 2007 SP3 is missing.
From the file info of WinWord.exe and from the Help GUI in Word on the client, I can confirm that SP3 is installed: 12.0.6668.5000
If I download the SP3 to Office 2007 and SP3 to Office 2007 Language pack that MBSA offers and tries to install them, it says
that the ServicePack is already installed on the system.
Any suggestions for why MBSA detects that ServicePack is needed even if it is already installed on the client ?
(Compatibility pack for Office 2007 is not installed on the client)

Hi Peter,
Seems I fell into the issue.
Actually, if I run a Microsoft Update, it tells me that there's a "MS Office 2007 Service Pack 3 (SP3)" rolloout that I should install. I asked to download it, saw it was 21MB big (rather small), installed it, and the problem was solved.
Now, I would like to know what was actually installed, in order to add it to a Task Sequence I'm building a new image with. The problem is that I can't find any evidence (KB reference or whatever) of what has been run. The History logs only refers to "MS
Office 2007 SP3"...
Any ideas ?
Thanks!

Acrobat 8 Pro and Office 2007 Problem

I posted this in the CS3 forum originally. They told me to post here too.
Issue:
When logged in as a local user (no admin rights) Word 2007 will crash the whole computer when you type a key.
The reason I am posting on Adobe forums is that this only happens when CS3 is installed as well on the same computer.
Troubleshooting:
Both products work fine as a local user account, if only one or the other are installed.
During login, Acrobat Pro will display a MSI/Installer progress bar for about 30secs. After I updated Acrobat to 8.1.3, that stops, but the Word crashing problem doesn't.
When starting Office, setup runs everytime. It shows just a progress bar and goes for about 1min.
On a doc, if I wait about 5min and don't do anything. A MSI install progress bar will run for "MS Office 2007 Pro", this will re-spawn for several mins. until it finally stops. After that, Word IS usable.
No other problems with CS3.
Fully updated both CS3 and Office 2007
This could very well be an Office issue, but it is associated with CS3 also being installed on the same computer.
Any help would be great!

BI Publisher desktop does not work on Office 2007 SP3

Hello for everyone.
I have installed BI Publisher Desktop 10.1.3.4.1 in a machine that has Microsoft Office 2007 SP3 installed, despite the add-in appears and after enabled all macros (Word properties), when I try to use the Add-in the following message appears: "The macro cannot be found or has been disabled because of your macro security settings".
I am glad if you can guide me to fix this issue.
Thanks,

1>Close all microsoft office suite products.

Adobe v9 on W7 and office 2007. cannot create PDF from MS word using Adobe. But can from Excel, PPT

Adobe v9 on W7 and office 2007. cannot create PDF from MS word using Adobe. But can from Excel, PPT and other MS office apps. Reinslalled Adobe, updated Office, and Adobe no help! Also I can create a pdf from the MS Word and it is using the Adobe 9. So one would think that's good. No it isn't when you need to combine different files to one big PDF document. Any suggetions? Thank you

Yes, I’m saying that I can in WORD use “Save As ADOBE pdf” but cannot in ADOBE create a pdf file from a WORD (.doc or .docx) document. While I can from other MS Office apps like Excel and PowerPoint.
I understand I can use “work around” and save doc in WORD as pdf then compile all files needed (xml, ppt, pdf) in the ADOBE v9. to one big pdf document. But that is not the point of this post.

Having problems with OPA 10 and office 2007 templates

Hi,
I have a OPA 10 and office 2007 set up which is having some issues with the macros. Seems to me that the visual basic code is not kicking off really well sometimes. I am trying to map the sequence which leads to the errors and I believe that the issue is around opening an old word doc which has a old template version (.dot). This may be the cause for OPA getting lost when working with word 2007.
For example, I ask to open a rules doc and the visual basic tells me that OPA couldn't open the doc but word is opening the doc anyway. However none of the toolbar commands work as well as I can 't save the doc etc.
Have you experienced any issue with OPA 10 and Office 2007? Any special word configuration? Should i go back to office 2003?
BTW, I have both dotm and dot templates loaded as add-ins in word. The dotm toolbar looks good but the dot toolbar is a bit strange in 2007.
Cheers,
Paulo

Hi Paulo,
Have a look at the following tips from Davin Fifield about troubleshooting the toolbar.
Sometimes when using Oracle Policy Modeling, Microsoft Word documents that are part of a Policy Modeling project may appear without the OPA toolbar (in Office 2003) or OPA options on the Add-Ins ribbon (in Office 2007) when opened in Microsoft Word.
This problem can be caused by various factors.
Here are the top three troubleshooting steps to try to recover from this situation.
1. With your project open in Oracle Policy Modeling, run Update Oracle Policy Templates from the Tools menu. This will attempt to make sure the correct Word template is attached to each project Word document that is not currently excluded from the build. Open a Word document to see if the toolbar/ribbon is now displayed correctly. If not, continue to step 2.
2. Try changing the UI language for your project. To do this, choose Options, from the Tools menu in Oracle Policy Modeling. Select Environment. Selet General. Under Authoring UI Language, choose a language other than your preferred UI language, and click OK. Then repeat these steps to revert to your preferred language. Open a Word document to see if the toolbar/ribbon is now displayed correctly. If not, continue to step 3.
3. Open one of the Word documents in your Policy Modeling project. Run the macro UpdateToolbar: In Word 2007, choose the View ribbon, then select Macros/View Macros, highlight the UpdateToolbar macro, then choose Run.
Does this resolve your issue?

Agree, this looks like an interaction between Acrobat 8 and Microsoft Office. The symptom you used to see (prior to 8.1.3) was probably Acrobat's "self-healing" process trying to fix something in Office, probably related to the PDFMaker feature that is installed into Office. Perhaps you have a somewhat unconventional installation of Office 2007 with custom registry settings?
Also, you mention that Word "crashes the whole computer" - are you referring to a BSOD or what? Word (and the Acrobat plug-ins for PDFMaker) don't go into any protected mode that can cause a full system crash. Very strange!

Internet Exporer 8 and Office 2007 Supported?

We currently have a client running BOE XI R2, and they are considering deploying Internet Explorer 8 and Office 2007. They use Web Intelligence as their main reporting environment.
Does anyone know if IE 8 and Office 2007 are officially supported at any BOE version? I have been unable to find the Supported Platforms document on the new SAP site.
Thank you in advance for your help!

Hello Tim,
What SP/FP are you on?
In any case, Office 2007 is supported on SP5. IE 8 is not supported. The newest supported version of IE is 7.
The Support Platforms document is available at the Business Object Article site [here|Articles].

Pub 6.4 and Office 2007 file extensions.

Hello all,
I had an issue pop up recently regarding ALUI 6.5.1, Publisher 6.4, and Office 2007 files.
Our user base was upgraded to Office 07 several months ago, and we modified our crawlers to handle the new file extensions. We also have a Publisher portlet where users can post various for sale items; kind of a company bulletin board. This portlet uses the News template and sometimes users will attempt to publish a Word or Excel document link to accompany their for sale item. The portlet will publish okay, but when we click on the doc link we get a pop up window that shows the file name with a .ZIP extension and not the correct .DOCX or .XLSX extension. Of course the file does not open either.
Other than instructing users to save files in the older format/name, is there a way for Publisher 6.4 to support the new file extensions of Office 07? Would this work in Pub 6.5?
Thanks for any help.

Any solution to this?
We are on Publisher 6.5 and are getting the same error.
I'm assuming this is an issue with the Publisher mime-types (which aren't the same as the general portal mime-types) not being set for the new extensions?
But it is curious that it is redoing them as .zip files!

RoboHelp x5 and Office 2007

Does anyone know if you are able to operate RoboHELP x5 and Office 2007 without it shutting down with errors. Currently we have a help system set up and we were updated to Office 2007 late March. We are now having quite a few difficulties making changes to documents that needed updates. Usually the documents were loaded as MS Word docs and then during compiling transformed to .html files. Now with the Office 2007, RoboHELP doesn't want to import any documents because of the fact that X5 doesn't support Office 2007. Is it possible to import the files as .html files instead to sidestep this issue? Any help here would be greatly appreciated as I am a new user of RoboHELP with limited people who know how this program works.
Thanks!

Not a chance. Sorry but you will have to upgrade.

Windows Server 2008 SBS and Office 2007

Hello, the problem I am having is having Safe Senders and Safe Recipients imported into Outlook 2007 SP2 from group policy. It simply won't append the list. The environment is the following:
Clients: Windows XP Professional with SP3 installed. MS Office 2007 with SP2 installed.
Server: Windows 2008 SBS with SP2 installed.
What I have setup and tried:
1. Installed the ADMX files correctly on the server and created a GPO with the Outlook settings I need:
- Specify path to Safe Senders and Recipients files. Location: \\SERVER\netlogon\SafeSenders.txt
2. Attached the GPO to the correct OU (users are in the OU).
3. Installed the client side extensions from this link: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=3628 on the Windows XP machines.
Even after setting this up the lists still will not import into Outlook 2007. What I have tried and other notes:
- Clients have access to the \\SERVER\netlogon share area. Verified through Windows Explorer.
- Tried forcing group policy update using gpupdate /force No results.
- Tried logoff and reboot combinations on client machines and still no results.
- gpresult returns the GPO is applied (but clearly it's not working).
New to setting this up to Windows XP clients, works on Windows 7 clients flawlessly. Ideas? Solutions? Thanks.
Rob Holmes

Hi Rob Holms,
Based on Donpick's suggestion, if the issue still exists, you can try to enable GPSV debug logging on one client with the problematic clent. This log records the detailed information about the group policy applying process which is very useful for troubleshooting
the group policy related issues. To enable this debug logging, please perform the following steps:
1). In the Regedit Editor, expand HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Window NT\CurrentVersion.
2). Under the folder, create a new key called “Diagnostics”.
3). Under the key, create a DWORD value “GPSvcDebugLevel” and set the value as
0x30002.
After making this change, run gpupdate /force to reproduce the issue. After that, check %SystemRoot%\Debug\UserMode\ folder and analyze the log to get more help.

The Report Generation Toolkit does probably not support Office 2007 yet. This is because the Office ActiveX interface used to change with each version and the Report Generation Toolkit comes with specific libraries for each of the Office versions it supports. With the wrong office version the Report Generation Toolkit VIs are normally broken and can't run without some more or less involved modifications.

Performance Problems Bex 7.0 and Office 2007 Workbooks

Hi
we had a performance Problem with Bex 7.0 and Worksbooks in Office 2007.
The Workbooks are created with Office 2003 and runs with good performance but in Office 2007 the performance is inacceptable.
E.g. open Workbook with Office 2003   --    30 seconds
       open Workbook with Office 2007   --    15 minutes
We do everything what we find in SAP Notes, Whitepapers oder SDN Messages.
For Example:
- We installed all Excel Patches witch descriped in: Microsoft Excel 2007 &
SAP Business Explorer Compatibility
- We set the optimize X: RS_FRONTEND_INIT setting u2018ANA_USE_OPTIMIZE_STG = Xu2019
- We open worksbooks in Office 2007 with the repair Flag.
- We used Flag open in XLS format
But same Workbooks are extrem slow.
We try to create a new Workbook with Office 2007 and it runs with good performance.
But there are 500 Workbooks we didn`t wont to create all new.
System Information:
BW: 7.0 Netweaver 7.01 BI_CONT 7.05
Client: SAP Gui 7.10 BI Explorer: 902
Thank your for your Help.

Hello Carsten,
Try to use Workbook compression:
- Open the specific workbook in BEx Analyzer
- Open Workbook Settings dailog
- Check "Use Optimized Storage"
- Click on OK Button
- Save the workbook
But also, your front end tools are on a very old version.
I would like to recommend you to install the latest patch of SAPGUI 7.20 and Business Explore 7.20.
Front End Version 7.10 will be supported until April 2011.
But, if you want to continue using 7.10, update to latest patch:

Office 2010 and Office 2007 on same machine

I am currently running the following:
Xcelsius Engage 2008, service pack 4
Windows 7, 64 bit
Office 2007 Ultimate, 32 bit
Everything working well
I purchased a version of Office 2010 Home and Student - it has both 32 and 64 bit versions. My plan was to keep Excel 2007 on my machine so that Xcelsius would still work. Then, I loaded the 64 bit version of 2010. It seemed to work for a session, Xcelsius seemed to pull on the Excel 2007. Then I restarted my machine and Xcelsius could not launch excel. It seemed to occur right after I tried to import an xls that had been created in Excel 2010.
My question is: is it possible to successfully run Xcelsius with Office 2010 Home Student 64 bit? Should my strategy of keeping Excel 2007 have worked? Or should I accept 32-bit is the reality for the next few years?
Also, I see that Xcelsius does not support the Home and Student version of Office. Why is that? Isn't excel, powerpoint, word, the same regardless of the version?

Hi,
As soon as you restart your system office version is updated to latest version of office that you have installed(64 bit)
Go through the following link for supported platforms and versions :

Application Virtualization 4.6 (SoftGrid) Acrobat Pro 9.2 and Office 2007

I'm actually trying to sequence Acrobat Pro 9.2 together with Office 2007 in a dynamic suite composition with Application Virtualization 4.6 RC.
I can sequence both applications and deploy them to the client. Everything seems to work fine, except the Acrobat plug-in in office. When I start Word or another office application, i can see the tab "Acrobat" and can choose the option to create a PDF of the actual document. If the Office application was started the first time since the logon, the PDF is going to be created as it should... no error. If I'd like to create a second PDF an error occures, saying that Adobe Acrobat can't be used because it's not activated (Its a volume license installation). The same error when I close and start the office application again. When I log off and log in, it works again the first time. Starting Acrobat without Office (independent) everything works and no such error appears. The Problem is that, the virtual application resides active (in use) in the App-V console after closing (maybe thats a normal behavior when two packages are dependent in a dynamic suite composition...).
I think there's a problem with the combination of App-V and the licensing system used by Adobe. Is it possible to install the licensing component seperately from Acrobat (during the sequencing a FlexNet service were identified? I could not find appropriate setup files to do so... Maybe its possible to solve the problem by installing the licensing component localy on the computer and then the virtualized application uses this component to check the license status or whatever is going to be checked...
Thanks for any hint...

The first problem is probably a permissions issue. Run Repair Permissions from the Disk Utility. For the second see this
Announcement: Known Acrobat Issues under Snow Leopard
Hide Details
(1) The Adobe PDF Printer module does not work under OS X.6. Please see http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50981.html to find out how to create Adobe Quality PDFs under Snow Leopard.
(2) Opening files from the finder, including files authored by Adobe applications, may not open them in the original authoring application. Omitting a file extension from the file name will increase the likelihood of this happening. See http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/511/cpsid_51110.html for more information.
