Overview
Microsoft Office 2000 was designed as a fully 32-bit suite of software developed with year 2000 problem in mind. All the Office 2000 applications support Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) which allows moving data automatically between various programs.
Office 2000 was released to manufacturing without product activation protection, although after the release of Service Release 1, updated retail editions of Office 2000 with product activation were sold in Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Hong Kong, New Zealand and the United States. They required the user to activate the product via the Internet.
Office 2000 was the first version of Office to use Windows Installer technology. This allowed service packs to be slipstreamed into the original installation files. The first update was called Service Release 1 (SR-1). Subsequent updates were called service packs. Service Pack 3 was the last service pack.
Mainstream support for Office 2000 ended on June 30, 2004[4], and extended support ended on July 14, 2009[4].
