Dumping office updates not installed

[Mike]

Hi,

I am running Windows XP Pro on a laptop. I had a version
of Office 2000 Professional that was the "college
student" version. When I try to apply updates, it is
looking for an installation file that is to be on the
original Office 2000 profession full version disk. The
student version has a different installation file, so the
update fails. I purchased a copy of Office XP standard
edition and replaced the "Student" 2000 version with the
newer Office XP. Now, where are those unistalled office
updates located within windows so I can remove them
before trying to update my Office XP.

Thank you

Mike,
Have you tried running disk cleanup?

Yes, apparently these updates are not in the normal temp
folders.

Hi all, Disregard this request, I'm not sure what I did
or how I did it, but the old updates are gone and I just
updated my Office XP with no problems.
Thanks,
