Download Microsoft Office Suite 2007 Service Pack 3

Microsoft Office Suite 2007 Service Pack 3 (SP3) is now available for download. These updates provide the latest updates to the Microsoft Office Suite 2007. SP3 includes two main categories of fixes:

  • Previously unreleased fixes that were made specifically for this service pack. In addition to general product fixes, this includes improvements in stability, in performance, and in security.
  • All the public updates, security updates, cumulative updates, and hotfixes that were released through September 2011.

Because Office Service Packs are cumulative, you do not have to install Service Pack 1 or Service Pack 2 before you install Service Pack 3. Service Pack 3 includes all fixes which were included in Service Pack 1 and Service Pack 2.
