Unable to set .NET 3.5 SP2 as a prerequisite

I am deploying a WPF desktop application via ClickOnce and a web URL.  I have set the prerequisite of my app to be .NET 3.5 but see no option to require SP2.

Is there a way for me to update Visual Studio so that I can select .NET 3.5 SP2 as a prerequisite?  I see where I can "Check Microsoft Update..." but there is no redistributable package there for .NET 3.5 SP2, just .NET 2.0 SP2 and 3.0 SP2.

Performing a fresh installing on a machine that has no .NET installed forces the user to install .NET 3.5 but NOT SP2.

If it matters, I am developing on a 64bit machine but deploying for both x86 and 64bit.

Thanks.

Hi TadRichard,

There is no such thing as .NET 3.5 SP2. I recommend you select .NET 3.5 SP-1.

Sorry, my bad.  I meant SP 1.

Is there a way to specifically select .NET 3.5 SP1?  The only option I see is .NET 3.5 and it only installs the base version.  Can I manually alter the manifest to require SP1?

I am downloading the prereqs from Microsoft.
