The option will appear on the windows update program to enable "Microsoft Update" rather than windows update. From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Peter Bentley Sent: 30 August 2010 12:07 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Office 2000 updates Using XP Home and Office 2000 There used to be a facility on the MS web site for automatically checking your computer for any updates for the above software. Obviously I have run the general Windows update program and this has not highlighted any available Office 2000 updates. I realise that the software is 10 years old and that the facility may have been removed but if anybody has a link please let me know. Peter Bentley
