Hi Douglas,

If you use the Express button, it will only install updates
for what you have,

George.

Subject: [access-uk] Windows Update

It appears that some changes have been made in the Windows
Update 
recently and it now includes Office updates in the list
offered.   This seems 
a good idea as it saves going to the Office Update site
which, in my 
experience, is not very screen reader friendly.

However there seems to be a snag.   On this machine I only
have a basic 
version of Office which includes Word, Excel, and Outlook -
all I need at 
present.   However the Express button produces a large list
including 
updates for Powerpoint, front Page etc. etc. As a result I
am obliged to use 
the Custom button and select only the updates I need.  

Has anyone else noticed this, or is it yet another oddity of
my machine?


Douglas
