Can't get Spanish keyboard in 2007 Word
Hi, I have been able to write in Spanish, including spell check, etc.,
however, the keyboard remains in English. I found the "English" icon down on the lower bar in Word and that lets me switch languages, but it does not switch the keyboard. I went to Control Panel/Regional .../etc. and I have both Keyboards listed. However, the button to choose a "language bar" (which Word help tells me I need) is grayed out. I had no trouble getting the Spanish keyboard in Word 2003 (in Office). There are symbols, etc., needed that are not available from the English keyboard. Thanks ... |

Office doesn't have anything to do with the language bar, this is a
Windows feature. You should have the EN icon for English in the Windows taskbar (not part of Word, but Windows). When you click on it, you should be able to change it to Spanish?

Thanks. That makes sense, but I can't seem to get the Lanugage Bar to show up. It is grayed out in my Control Panel and when I click it under "Toolbars" for the taskbar (unlocked), nothing happens. It may have something to do with my use of a MS Office keyboard. I'll do some more exploring to see if I can find a fix for that problem. |

Do you have more than one language installed? Two different languages,
not two different keyboard layouts? Control Panel, Regional and Language Options, Languages, Details, Language Bar doesn't work?

Yes, I had more than one language installed, but it didn't seem to want to
come forward until I checked and unchecked some boxes. I think the one that did the trick is "Extend support of advanced text services to programs." Thanks for your help, it sent me in the right direction ... It seems to be working now. Thanks, Mary "Patrick Schmid" wrote: Do you have more than one language installed?
