There shouldn't be any problem(s), unless you go in a delete the user
account that encrypted the file AND the Administrator's (default
recovery agent) account. Other then that SP2 should work fine and
dandy.

There should be no problem opening encrypted files after installing SP-2.
But you should always have back-ups of encrypted data.
Is your encrypted data important?
What is your plan if the hard drive has a catastrophic mechanical failure?
