I've
made this page simply for informational purposes and to make downloading
updates faster & easier.
Download and install these Office updates of their respective versions
from top to bottom.
[a little star * indicates a new system update; the <> symbol means
to install a patch with caution because it may have a
possible side effect; I am not responsible if the updates you download
here do more harm than good]
The
updates for all versions of Office are listed starting from the recent
version of Office at the top to the earliest version of
Office
at the bottom. Note that these patches are for legally licensed
versions of Office and not for pirated versions, so for
those
using Office 2003 or greater go through the product activation process
first before downloading & installing any updates.
An
alternative to using MS Office is MS Works.
Updates for Microsoft Office 97, 2000 and XP/2002 are featured on the Office/Works page - part 2.
ALERT!
WARNING: If you use any Microsoft Office programs AND you have
applied the original release of the Windows 2000
SP4
Update Rollup 1 pack from MS article 891861, download & install the
revised Update Rollup 1 pack. The MS Office related
problems
with the Win2000 SP4 UR1 are mentioned in MS
article 904368.
Notes:
As with Office 2003, Office 2007 may require you to insert your Office
2007 CD when installing the updates above.

Notes:
Office System 2003 will only run under Windows XP, Windows Server 2003
& Windows 2000 with at least Service Pack 3.
It
will not run whatsoever under Windows 9x, ME & NT4. As with Office
2000 & XP, any updates installed under Office 2003 will
require
access to the Office 2003 CD if Office was installed from the CD.

Caution: There are some issues after installing Office 2003 Service Pack
3 and they are listed in MS article 923618.
Notes:
The latest MDAC & Jet downloads for Windows 2000, XP & Server 2003
are included in the latest Service Packs available

those systems (Windows Vista already has the latest MDAC & Jet components).
The MS .NET Framework add-on requires
MDAC
2.6 or higher to use so do not install earlier versions of MDAC less than
v2.6 if you plan to use the .NET Framework.
The
KB892211 Web Folders update for Win2k is needed only if Office 2000/XP
or the Web Folders addon from IE 5.01 or IE 5.5
was
installed. KB892211 includes the MS01-001 and MS01-022 security fixes.
Those using WinXP or higher can install the
