Update error when there is mixed install of 2 versions of office

[samareth]

I have installed two versions: I have all the applications of Office 2003
Professional but I also have (just) the photo editor from Office 2000
installed. I would appreciate a change to the Ofiice Update so it wouldn't
try to get me to download updates for versions of Office applications I don't
have. I get updates for the 2000 version of Word, etc. even though I only
have the 2003 version of these products installed on my computer.

Then just uncheck them from the download page. The Office Update tool
detects that you have Office 2000 installed and offers the updates. There
is nothing that says you have to download them.
