intergraded Windows and Office updates.

I found (via this forum) that MS, has a new windows update utility that
checks for both windows and office updates simutaniously.
I use this, and it seemed that it was working fine.
I have installed on my system:
XP pro SP2, Office XP PRO, and since Office XP PRO, that I have installed,
did NOT come with Publisher, I installed my 2000 version (OEM).
Just for the sack of testing, I did an Automatic update of Windows, it found
3 updates that needed to be done for Windows and nothing for Office, so I in
turn did an Office updated and it found 5 updates for Office 2000.
Why did the new version of MS update not pickup that Office 2000 had updates
to be done.

Thank you

Hi,

Microsoft Update does not support updating Office 2000, only Office XP
and newer.
