PowerPoint help file doesn't exactly match program

The PowerPoint Help window images and descriptions don't seem to match
exactly what I see within PowerPoint. The help instructions will say to do X,
Y, and Z but when I get to Z, the indicated screen image is different, the
indicated button doesn't exist, or indicated choices don't include what the
program provides. Is the help file updated over time to synch with the latest
version of PowerPoint?

Is there a way to force a download of the correct help file that matches the
revison of PowerPoint I'm running?

FYI, I'm running PowerPoint 2007 (12.0.6307.5000) SP 1 MSO (12.0.6320.5000),
Part of Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007 and I have Automatic Windows Update
turned on.

Not sure of any way to download updated Help, but you'd have to be more
specific for us to check what you're saying. However, at the end of Help
topics, there's usually a box asking if the information was helpful. If you
say No, a box opens up and you can tell Microsoft what you're experiencing.
That will help them update the Help files.
