i have office 2000 installed on the computer. Version 9.0.2720, but office 2000 service pack 3 from the microsoft website, says "The expected version of the product was not found on your system". How do i update? I have a file that was written in office 2003 and it was password protected with high encryption. Unfortunately, the file can no longer be opened on this computer with office 2000, bercause it can't detect the correct password.

Further problem. I found out that i had to install sr1 first, but it then kept asking me for the source disk, but i never had such a disk with this computer. Everything came installed is there anything i can do to install the updates without the disk?
