For additional technical details about the Office 2010 SP1 updates, see the following Microsoft Knowledge Base (KB) articles:

Updating Office 2010

The Office 2010 programs are installed through multiple Microsoft Installer (.msi) packages. For more information, see Setup architecture overview for Office 2010.

Important

If you are updating Office 2010 programs manually (for example, not using Microsoft Update), you must make sure that you apply every service pack update that is available for each installed Office 2010 program. Otherwise, detection tools, such as Microsoft Update, which you run later might indicate that a service pack is needed even though it is installed.
If update detection tools indicate that a service pack for the Office 2010 is needed even though it is installed, you must install any missing service pack updates for the installed Office 2010 programs. For example, if you are using the Updates folder to deploy updates in your initial Office 2010 program installations, and therefore extracting the .msp files from the updates to the Updates folder on the Office 2010 network installation point, you must make sure that all .msp files for the required service pack updates are included.
For information about how to test updates and verify the list of .msp files before you copy them to the Updates folder, see Testing and verifying the Windows Installer update (.msp) files in Distribute product updates for Office 2010. For more information about how to use the Updates folder to deploy updates, see Updates folder in Distribute product updates for Office 2010.
