Office 2000 SP3 Administrative Install update

M

Max Soullard

Hi
I have Office 2000 Select CD. I followed all the instructions on the
KB266323 and created an administrative installation on my server. I am now
trying to update my administrative installation from SR1 to SP3. But every
time I receive the following error message:

**********************************************************
The upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service
because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade patch may
update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be
upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade patch.
**********************************************************
I am using the following command line:

Msiexec /a \\server\share\data1.msi /p \\server\share\mainsp3ff.msp
shortfilenames=1 /qb

I have the SP3 administrative install: o2ksp3a.exe 58.1 MB.

Article KB279181 has this error message but the solution is the installation
of SR1.which my central installation already contains.

Any help will be much appreciated
Thanks
Max
