Office 2000 still ask for SP3 update

[Richard M.]

Hi !

I am managing an Office 2000 installation.

The administrative installation point has been made from a Select Office
2000 Premium SR1a CD. On this installation point, I performed the SP3 update
using the "fullfile" update. And then, I applied all the patches up to date.

I deployed the resulting Office on a test computer the same way as usual
(using custom MST). And for testing purpose, I went to
http://office.microsoft.com in order to check it the patches were correctly
applied.

The troubles is that it says that I need to apply the SP3 update ! But it
does not complain anymore about the others updates. And it does detect
correctly that it is an administrative installation that shouldn't be
updated manually.
At the same time, each Office applications shows the correct version number
for SP3.

Needless to say, I am not able to apply again the SP3 update : it will tell
that it is not finding an office version that can be patched.

Can I safely ignore this warning about missing SP3 update ?

Is there another way to check for Office patches compliance ? (Something
such as MS Baseline Analyser or even the command line "hfnetchk")

Thanks for any idea,

--Richard.
