[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1851692, member: 46727"] My version of Word is also at 16.37 but that is from MS 365 not the stand alone version of Office. Usually the stand alone version does not get the same updates as the subscribed version. With the stand alone version there is an option to "check for updates" which can be user activated. If the MS Updater app is installed it will open and start to check for updates. I'm not sure how Office checks for updates from the MS 365 version. I do know that if MS 365 was purchased from Mac App Store, the updates are downloaded automatically from there. The stand alone version includes a product ID and serial number whereas the MS 365 version is verified by user account. @AJP24: How did you purchase your copy? Was it the stand alone version or the subscribed MS 365 version? If you purchased the stand alone version, the product ID and serial number were included with your download. MS no longer provides a DVD unless you pay extra for it. [/QUOTE]
