Hi George,
It's the "SR1 Update" installation sequence rather than Office 2000 SR1 version
(Office 2000 SR1 product CD) that causes the issue.
FWIW, Service Releases (SR) generally have a matching CD with the change incorporated while Service Packs (SPs) are generally 'add
on' install only.
Unfortunately, Microsoft stopped doing Service Release product updates for
Office after Office 2000.

So uh what happens if Office 2000 came with SP1 embeded?
