The only exception I can think of is when an update breaks something - and you're testing these in a lab so that's not an issue, right? ;) When an update on a client machine is superseded by a newer one, Windows takes care of installing the newest bits automatically. So, unless I'm misunderstanding your question this is a non-issue. -- Jeff Centimano MVP - Windows Server http://windowsconnected.com/blogs/jeff "Nick Pennisi" <NickPennisi[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:C8B6B625-7EC5-4E14-B167-E52ACD3E6DCF[ at ]microsoft.com...
