Was it released via Automatic Update?

Far be it for me to advise you on protocol, but you have been here awhile now and have asked a lot of questions.
Now I don't know for sure, but have you ever given out a Thumb?
You might get more of the regulars to continue assisting you if you give one out at least once in awhile ;-)

If you have an Access database that ties into a MSSQL watch out. After the update we did a couple a months ago we had problems. When you open a form that has check boxes in it SP3 for some reason causes them to all be checked instantlly. might be a fix by now?

should have tested it more...i know

See the download page. Fixes some. Adds some new ones.

If you haven't Office SP3 via automatic updates the you're still using Windows Update instead of Microsoft Update.

all of the machines here have microsoft update, but there are some machines here that did not have SP3 when I checked. Is there something further that needs to be done for Office Updates to come in automatically?

by seanferd

Is automatic update on, with nothing that would be blocking a port or whatnot?

Are those units running Vista? If so, there could be some weirdness there.

I'd just manually install sp3 (if you want it), and check occasionally to see if these machines are as up to date as the others.

So you need to supply same or location of admin install point.

Seen it happen on a workgroup of ten computers, where 3 would not complete until that was done.

Auto update is on. All the rest of the updates are there. Just manually installed SP3.

No Vista units.

When I saw the post about SP3 through Microsoft Update automatically, I thought there might be something further to be done for that to happen.
