Installing updates using Tuner

We are going to be installing Acrobat Elements and Reader 7.0 using the InstallShield Tuner for 7.0. I would like to install any updates that are out for those versions during the installation. What is the best way to include the updates with the initial installation using Tuner? I want to be able to package it all up and only have to perform one install, if possible.

I forgot to add this in my last post. I have downloaded the updates from Adobe's site. How do I extract them and get the files I need? Also, I would like to have the installs be silent.

We need to be able to install the updates from a CD for remote users. Is there a way to do this using chaining? I already have Reader and Elements chained together for the install. Can I chain the updates on at the end?

Make an admin install point, patch the admin install, then deploy.

1) msiexec /a elements.msi transforms="elements.mst" (transform was made in acrobat tuner 7)

2) then in the admin install directory  > msiexec /a elements.msi /p Ac705EmP_efgj.msp

3) then copy the transform from your original elements folder into the admin folder and install Elements 7
