I recently installed Mac Office 2004, I downloaded and installed the update
11.2.1.

Question: is 11.2.1 a "combo" update that would cover ALL the updates
listed for Mac Office 2004, there are 13 that might apply to me.

THANKs,
Gary

Hi,
11.2.1 is not a combo update; however, SP2 is. According to Microsoft's
website,

> This service pack also includes all of the improvements released in
> Office 2004 Service Pack 1 (11.1.0), Office 2004 11.1.1 Security Update, and
> international proofing tools updates.

So, the right update procedure would be to get SP2 and then apply the
smaller 11.2.1 update (which only resolves a couple of Exchange problems).
Alternatively, you might find it easier to simply run the Microsoft
AutoUpdate application that is in your application folder; that way, you
don't have to worry about which updates to apply.

If you use the 'check for updates' item under the Help menu, this will
always find the most relevant updates. After updating, check again until it
tells you there are no updates available.
