[cw-discuss] How do I add compatibility pack for new MS Office formats?

I tried this, but didn't read the MS site for requirements. I have 
Office 2000 installed in a Win98 bottle. This update requires a Windows 
2000 or Windows 2003 bottle. Is there a way to change that in Wine? Or 
do I need to install Office 2000 again using a different bottle?

(Installing the update to a new 2000 bottle that doesn't contain the 
Office 2000 didn't allow me to open Office 2007 files.)

Thanks!
