Extra columns in Excel with SP2

I would like to upgrade to Reporting Services service pack 2 so that I can
specify report colours and specify to move the header into Excel's header.
However when we upgrade to Service Pack 2 it causes extra totals columns to
appear at the end of the months in the generated reports. These columns
could possibly acceptable if they were titled as Total however they are not.
Can anybody make any suggestions in how to generate the report in excel
without the additional columns appearing in the excel output? Many thanks.Does anybody have any ideas about how to do this - any guesses even would be
appreciated. Thanks

Express Installation

Hi,

I have tried to install the SQL 2005 Server Express and get the following message:

Your operating system does not meet service pack level requiements for this SQL server release. Install the service pack.

Can anyone tell me what service pack it will be and where I can get it.

hi,

please have a look at http://www.microsoft.com/sql/editions/express/sysreqs.mspx

What is the service pack of Windows where you are trying to install the SQLExpress?

Service packs can be obtained from MS download site.

Express Edition SP2 - How long to wait for complete installation?

Just curious if there's a reason why everytime I try to apply the Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Service Pack 2 from Windows Update that it will sit at "Installing" and appear to do nothing (no hard drive activity, but the MSI and setup processes are chewing a little bit of CPU time). How long should I give this update to complete? I am running a 2-CPU dual-core Xeon 3.0GHz w/ 2GB of RAM setup, so I would have thought it would be completed very quickly. :(

Edit:

Disregard; I had to wait for a full 15 minutes! :OFifteen minutes isn't a 'unusual' amount of time. Depends upon what activity is occuring on the computer.|||I was surprised because nothing else was chewing CPU and Firefox was the only other application open besides IE7 running the Microsoft Update.
