Answering my own query - well kind of - I've done it thanks to the info
given here, so much appreciated for that.  I don't understand why it
wouldn't update automatically, but it seems to have done it and disappeared
from the failed updates.  I prefer, wherever possible, to have the machines
updated from the Windows Update site.

Guys,

The number is KB2289187, and it's the only one there.  So I did as Iain
suggested and downloaded it from Microsoft directly, and it is supposed to
be running it, so we'll see.

I now understand what the fix is for, but why it just wouldn't install it.
There is also one there for PowerPoint, but that particular update doesn't
keep coming up, only the one for Office itself.  Nevertheless, I decided to
run it too, but it gave me a message after accepting the licence agreement
that Office Hot Fixer is still running, so to wait until it has finished
before installing the second update.  Not sure what any of this means, but
there it is.

Kind Regards,

Hi Jackie,

If you do a manual Windows Update, it should tell you that there is one
important update.  There's a link to more details which tells you what the
update is for, and this will usually give you the number.

Alternatively, you may find there's a link to failed updates, and again it
usually gives you all we need to know.

George.

George, sorry, you've lost me.  Where would I find the update number?
I've
never encountered any update issues before, so please forgive me for being
rather senior about this.  I simply install all the updates, and it
generally happens, except with this one relating to MS Office which I think
was issued on 9 November.

Sorry I can't be more specific.

Hi Jackie,

It would help if we knew the Update Number since the error number is rather
generic.

George.

Subject: [access-uk] Windows Update security error

Apologies for cross-posting this, but wonder if one of you more
knowledgeable people could suggest a solution for the following problem I am
encountering.

Whenever I have updates to install on my Windows 7 Home Premium laptop,
every one of them installs except one which keeps telling me to try again,
and gives me the following error code: Code 80070663.  It appears to relate
to an Office 2003 patch, but no matter how many times I try installing this
update, I am sent round in a circle.

Does anyone know how I can install it, and what it is actually meant to do?
Presumably it is something to prevent malicious code or a security
vulnerability patch, but I'm beat with trying to get this in.  I have no
such problems on my Windows Vista laptop or my XP Netbook, and have all
three machines set to take every update automatically.

Thanks for any help.

Kind Regards,
