Default OFfice XP SP3, Strange Things....

I recently, just last night installed SP3 for Office XP.

On doing so I have experienced a strange phenomenon with the OLEObjects on a worksheet.

When I print to Adobe PDF through the Add-in, it prints the page as it appears on screen. Moments after all of the images are re-aligned to the left (at about 150), this includes all of the Checkboxes, ListBoxes and any other control that is on the page.

It has also casued some of the images to stretch over 100-200 rows causing some interesting effects.

I tried re-installing the Adobe as I thought that the problem was there, but that didn't fix the problem.

After trying that, to no success I uninstalled Office XP (as no restore point was created with the SP) and started from scratch, first installing Office then Adobe.
I kept checking the outcomes and as yet I'm still to re-apply SP3.

Has anyone else had anything like this?

Paul.
