expected version not found

[Jim Dykes]

When we try to apply patches to our Office 2000
installations using the Offiue update site, we get the
error message "The expected product was not found on your
system." I also tried downloading an update file to
running the installation program locally but got the same
error. We have Office 2000 running on Windows 2000 and
Windows XP machines.

My plan is to use OHotFix to distribute Office updates to
our machines, but I have to get around this error first.
Thanks for any assistance you can offer.

I am getting the same error.

I am as well. (Running Office 2000 on Windows 98, NT and
XP)

I think I have found the solution. MS's web site says Office 2000 has
to be patched to SP3 in order for MS03-037 to run.
