MORE INFORMATION
The Help About dialog box shows the initial version number of the
product and does not change when you install a service pack.
To determine if a service pack has been installed on a particular computer,
find one of the files for the appropriate developer product and check the
version number. If the version number matches the number in the service
pack column, then the service pack has been installed. This is not a complete list of files from Service Pack 3, but rather this is a list that shows a representative sample of the changes from product release to each service pack. Note that for several products, there were no changes in Service Pack 1 or Service Pack 2.
