Office components removed after February updates !

[AlexV]

Hi,

This weekend I approved all February 2008 updates in WSUS (serveral offices
2003 updates included).
What I notice now, is that on several workstations (W2000 and XP) all Office
components have been removed (Office is still visible at Add/remove
Programs). I have to go to Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs to select the
components and then install them again.

Does anyone of you experienced this as well? Or do you have any clues?

Best regards,
Alex

Hi Alex,

There isn't anything that I'm aware of in the Office updates that would remove an installed application. Is there any indication in
the log files for the updates that indicates what occured?
