@ Carlosdl, Yes, that’s it ! somehow I didn’t find that thread. But I remembered, the same Q I have answered earlier. Thanks for clear the confusion.
But one thing, is miserable that, h/she asked the same question in two different ways.
What did h/she want, either upgrade nor update, this is not clear still now. Though the word “UPGRADE” was used in both of the Q.

Newby has asked another question which shows what he/she meant: Outlook 2000 upgrading to 2010

I am waiting for next reply from the Question Asker ! If he clarifies clearly, what does he want, that may help to come out from confusion.

Richel, there is no UPGRADE from OL 2000 to the current versions. This person was not asking how to download updates to Outlook 2000 as you suggest, they want to upgrade to a newer version and are asking the path to do so. The best path to get to the newest versions of outlook is to uninstall 2000 and install the newer version. Too much has changed to allow an UPGRADE from 2000 to 2007 or 2010, not even 2003. You could upgrade from 2000 to office xp, but beyond that, no. Uninstall and install the newest version provided your system can handle it.

Windows update will install ‘updates’. It will not UPGRADE outlook.
