Whats the quickest way to get a hotfix? - SimonS Blog on SQL Server Stuff

Whats the quickest way to get a hotfix?

I just blogged about an incompatibility between Office and the Infromation Bridge Framework which causes Excel to hang when using pivot tables. EXCEL 7 hangs when using pivot tables and other external data sources

I wanted to get hold of the hot fix and so tried the support numbers on MS.com but got no where. I then remembered the concierge service for MSDN subscribers.

I prompty started a chat with a concierge (David), explained I wanted the hotfix for the KB http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=926348. He promptly created a support incident and emailed the link to the hotfix.

Really quick and simple.Thanks David.
