I can't the above update to install….either through MS "Office Update" or by manually downloading it. I get a "INSTALLATION FAILED" message everytime.

Anyone know how to fix this issue? Thanks.

Are you logged-on to your computer with an Administrator Privileges Account? That would be required to download and install.

UPDATE: The following worked (retrieved from Juliet's link above)

Also make sure you START the "Office Source Engine" service through Control Panel > Performance and Maintanence > Administrative Tools > Services….prior to updating.

Worked like a charm! Thanks Juliet!!!
