Default automatic office updates

windows get updated via Automatic Update Services, but I wonder if there is a
way to automate the office as well. The only way I know how is to open an
office application and then check for update, or logon as admin on each and
every machine go to Microsoft update site...too much work.
can office or some other setting in Active Directory be configured to allow
automatic office update without user involvement?
