Office 2K Security Updates

[Michael Waltrip]

Office Update site detects 5 security updates my system requires.

Office 2000 Security Patch: KB82203
Word 2000 Security Patch: KB83034
Excel 2000 Security Patch:KB83034
Office 2000 WordParfect.5.x Converter Security Patch: KB824993 (English version
Access 2000 Snapshot Viewer Security Patch: KB826292 (Engligh version

I am missing the "original CD", as Office installed from network share that no longer exists nor can access
Hard to believe that security patches require install CD's

Accessing due to VPN network connect allows network OR intenet not both.

I tried getting the updates seperately, didn't work, something either tries to go online or wants the network share.
They are looking for "data1.cab"

Anyway to by-pass this limitation

Hi, Michael,

Though I've heard from one person that CDs may no longer be available, it
might be worth a call yourself:

326246 - How to Replace Lost, Broken, or Missing Microsoft Software or
Hardware:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;326246

If you are already at SR-1 level, you can use this utility, which will help
mitigate the future need for CDs for patching Office 2000:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;835220

The utility doesn't require the original CDs to install (I asked).

Hope that helps--
