Outlook folder list not in English anymore
Yesterday I built a laptop with English XP and Office 2003 for a Chinese
saleslady. I installed Office XP Tool: Simplified Chinese Language Pack and went to the control panel Regional Language Options Languages and installed Files for East Asian Languages. I chose a couple versions of Chinese and everything seemed fine. Today, when I open Outlook 2003, the folder list is no longer English, but just garble-dy-gook; random characters that are neither English or Chinese. Also large parts of messages opened are the same way. Chinese documents are affected the same. Any suggestions would be gratefully received. I only have one more day until this lady goes back to China and really need to get this resolved quickly. Thanks very much. |

That got all the folders except Outlook Today and Public Folders back to
normal. But most of the messages are still garbled. Thanks for the response. I don't have time to experiment so I am going to just rebuild the OS. There isn't anything extra to install except transferring her My Docs and .pst file. Thanks again.
