Greek language pack craches word 2007

This seems to be an issue affecting all copies of Word 2007 with the
Greek language pack installed, but only on Windows Vista. Greek language
pack installed means that it either is the Greek version of Office 2007,
or that the Greek Single Language Pack has been installed on top of an
Office in a different language.

Big problem with Greek language in office 2007.
I installed greek version of office 2007 and word crashes opening greek
files (with hyphenation in automatic mode). No problem opening file in
english.
I installed english version and everything works well (no greek hyphenation
and spell tools of course). I installed greek language pack on the top of
english version and word crashes again. I uninstalled language pack and all
ok again.
Same issue on all installations of my greek friends (at least 4 pc).
Any ideas, please....

Why would you copy text from Word 2003 to 2007 by the way? It is
probably not a good idea to have two different versions of Word open at
the same time...

Is that with the Russian version of Word or the Russian language pack
installed?

It is English version of Word. I use Unicode for the Russian text, Russian
spellcheck switched off. When I COPY Russian text from Word 2003 to Word 2007
it abends and closes. The same happens when I try to open docs with Russian
text created by Word 2003.

That's right, Patrick.
We are waiting for a patch from Microsoft, hoping that is will be soon
released.

Same problem here. German Office 2007 Pro, works fine. I purcased and
installed the Greek Language Pack (installes onlx the greek proofing tools).
After that, Word (i did not checked other Applications) crashes every time i
open a document in greek language.
OS is Vista 32, German.
Dear Patrick Schmid, is there any hope for us that Microsoft will solve this
issue?

Thank you very much!

Microsoft has confirmed the crash, and there will most likely be a fix.
However, I have no idea when that fix will be available.
