So, you have a short memory AND reading comprehension issues.
I understood the OP and answered his question, which was: why was he
being offered OFF2007 updates when he had OFF2000... and the answer
was that he had installed the 2007 Compatibility Pack, after which
one is offered updates to OFF 2007 as well as the installed version
of Office itself. That was his question and that was the answer.
The OP replied tp my post the next day, stated that this was correct
and what he had done. The OP *never* asked if the 2007 updates
updated OFF2000.... he asked why they were being offerred and if he
should install them.
Your list of OFF2000 updates had nothing to do with his question.
The
OP never bothered replying to your post, possibly because it was
irrelevant.
...and on and on you go, arguing your own error.
Are you really that dense, Glen? Why would somebody go to Office
Updates? Let me help you Glen. They would if they wanted to make sure
that their Office was fully up-to-date. And the OP had Office 2000.
And
sure Office Updates found that Office 2007 needed updating and ask why
would it say that when they had Office 2000?
Sure there was plenty of answers why updates would say such a thing.
Like having the compatibility pack that was covered by all. But nobody
but me answered what the OP was originally looking for. That was to
update their Office 2000 in the first place. And we know the OP was
looking for Office 2000 because they just did a fresh install of
Office
2000. And we know Office Updates don't give a rat's ass about
automatically updating Office 2000 anymore. And it wouldn't tell you a
damn thing about any updates for Office 2000.
But you rather play dumb and harass the people who are doing the
helping. And to beat them to death so they stop doing the real helping
and so everybody can be as dumb as you are. I personally call that
just
ignorance and I want no part of that.
I suggest you read the original post from that thread again, since you
misunderstood it from day one:
