Downloading unneeded Office Service Pack files
I have Word 2002 on my (XP Home) computer (plus the rest
of the Works 2002 Suite). The Office download center reports that I should download the latest Office Service Packs. BUT I don't have Office, just -- as I said -- the Word 2002 component of Office. The listing of the contents of the service pack shows a lot of atches/updates for Word as well as for other components of Office, which I don't have. My questions: Do I hve to download that nearly 50 minutes of non-Word "stuff" in the Service Pack just to get the specific file or files for Word? If I do download the Service Pack and only the Word portions are installed, what happens to the downloaded but uninstalled OTHER, non-Word portions? Do they remain on the hard drive, taking up lots of real estate (after all, it will take 50 minutes to download that SP!)? how do I get rid of all those OTHER, non-Word patches/updates? If you can, please respond to my (unmodified) email address: if you can. Thank you. |
