Glad that you guys are able to do the updates as many of us can
not!!!!!
If you search under my name (scott gingold) you will see two different
posts (besides this one) over the last 4 to 5 months. In a nutshell
though, I am pasting both the error message below, which I still get
today, as well as the official email back from Microsoft.
ERROR:
"The installer could not locate the correct version of the software
required to install this update. See the Read Me file included with
this installer to determine if your software meets the requirments for
this update".

No apologies needed Michel, I truly appreciate all of your efforts!
What I do find troubling is that this is a "known issue" yet the Level
1 M.S. reps don't know about it! Apparently its related to Tiger. I am
pasting below the follow-up email I received from M.S. Now the question
is how do I reach Apple to convey this without paying for support?
Here is a summary of the key points of the case for your records.
Remove and reinstall Microsoft Auto-Updater. Cannot Auto-Update.
Cannot remove software with Remove Tool. Manually removed
software. Saved Main Identity and removed MUD folder. Cannot
empty trash because several items are in use. Restarted computer.
Emptied trash. Re-installed Office 2004. Installed the
Updates. Will not install. Turned off Norton Antivirus. Turned
off Firewall. Cannot install updates. Start in Safe Boot.
Cannot start in Safe Boot. Manually downloaded the update and it
cannot find the software. Called Tier 2 - Glenn - indicates it is an
known issue. Referred to Apple.
This solution has resolved the issue.

No idea what "known issue" you refer to, but have been using 2004 (11.2.3)
in OS X (10.4.7) for months with no problems. There are always a few flaws
to be worked out, but this combination seems to be a trouble-free as any
I've ever undergone.
Perhaps if you'd be more specific about the suspected problem & what MS
'announcement' someone may be able to clarify the issue for you.

Anyone know if/when there will be a release so users can update Office
2004 for MAC that will work with Tiger, 10.4.7?
I have been unable to take advantage of any of the Office updates for
quite awhile since according to Microsoft on May 28, 2006 this was a
known issue for Apple and so far there seems to be no fixes.
Thanks, Scott
