Here is a ul file for office 2003 english updates, that were released till the 10th of July 2007.

Hope all works fine.

so is it any good? anything you think that needs to be changed?

What does a 'ul' file do?

Odd, does not seem to be all the patches. This is what I downloaded today using Windows Update. I unrared the file and then select Windows Downloader as the program to open it (UL file). Was that correct?

The downloader missed KB923097, KB894542 (Publisher), KB919029, KB925251 and some others. 6 in totoal are missing. Does anyone know how I can get hold of these without using Windows Update (or use Windows Update and tell me where they are stored)? I seem to go round in circles finding out on the Office site.

Nice program by the way.

To use the UL file, simply place the file in the same directory as the WUD executable, usually C:\Program Files\Windows Updates Downloader\

If you tell me which updates it misses, I'll be able to add them to the ul file and upload the new one.

I for one hugely appreciate the efforts here.
Being completely clueless as to the wizardry, sadly I can only offer my thanks and encouragement.
Please keepe this going for those of us who won't submit to the ribbonbar

Is there an update yet?

Sorry for the delay. I was out of the country for vacation and when I came back I had Job interviews. Will try to upload a new UL by tomorrow at the latest.

</update>

Here is the updated UL with the fixes from 14/08 and SP3

I'm currently installing Office 2003 and will be using Windows Update to see which updates are required. It seems that SP3 has all the previous updates and so it and the Junk mail filter might be the only updates required in the UL file for a fully updated Office

Yes, that's correct, makes the ul almost useless .

Not really. It just means that the UL will be brand new and more easy to maintain. I'll upload the new UL with SP3 and the Junk mail filter either when I get home for lunch or later tonight.

Here is the UL with only SP3 and Junk mail Filter.

Update Tuesday today. Around 10-15 updates for Office 2003 from what I've seen. I'm at work right now so I'll try to make the new UL sometime later today.

any progress?

Uhh, guys, how do you use that UL file, because if I stick it directly into the WUD folder, WUD won't load and gives an error. Any ideas?

Unrar the attachment above and place the UL file in the WUD program folder.
