Microsoft Prepares Office 2007 SP1 For December 11th Release

While Microsoft is working very hard to make a good service pack for Windows Vista, it's not the only thing they're working on. Microsoft is reportedly working hard on Service Pack 1 for Microsoft Office 2007. Due for release on this month's "Patch Tuesday", or December 11th, the service pack was created mainly based on consumer feedback. While Microsoft is mostly very "tight-lipped" about what exactly is going to be in the service pack, there are a couple confirmed features:

• Improved support for VSTO v3
• Better Object Model documentation for coding
• Improved support for .NET v3.5
• PowerPoint animated text has been upgraded
• Compatibility issues with previous Office file formats have been corrected
• Changes have been made to DirectX video overlay
