It used to be that one would have to go to Windows Updates for Window
updates and then to the Office site for Office updates. Now all I need to
do is go to Microsoft Update and I will get all the patches I need for
Microsoft products. Does this work for all Windows versions and Office
versions now and person just needs to go to one site Microsoft Update to get
the updates one needs?

Hi Susan,

No, Microsoft Update does not support all Windows or Office versions. Check
out "Microsoft Update in a Nutshell" in the right sidebar here:

Susan;
Microsoft Update updates the latest versions of Windows including Windows
2000 SP-3 and later as well as Office XP and later as well as a few other
products.
Microsoft plans to add more products over time so stay tuned for other
Microsoft products.
