How do i change my Office XP from Dutch to English?
I have installed Office XP professional and everything has got installed in
Dutch language,maybe cos the installation CD is from Belgium. How do i solve this problem by changing Dutch to English for all the Office software programs like word,excel,access etc. Please note that my operating system is windows 98 and that too is in Dutch. I tried using Microsoft XP language installation from Microsoft Office Help Programs, but it doesnt work after restarting the PC. |

You will need to acquire an English version of Office. The language cannot
be changed. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.

Hi Sarah,
Ummm, actually that's not quite true. English language editions of MS Office are supported on non-English versions of Windows. http://support.microsoft.com/default...us;290237&FR=1 The other way round (non-English Office on a different non-English version of Windows may not be supported). ======= "Miss Perspicacia Tick" wrote in message ...
