Change Microsoft Office 2003 network installation source path on client computers

Zones: General Office Suite Software, Office & Productivity Software, Microsoft Windows Operating Systems

I have many computers on our network which have problems with office update since the installation source path has changed. For this reason many updates just wouldn't work from WSUS since require local installation source or path to network share where the office 2003 distribution is. I don't wish to use a listool for creating a local installation source but I need to remotely modify the installation source path to the network share so that my client computers would update from WSUS without errors. How can this be accomplished?
