That will not change the language of the UI. To do that you must have the
Multilingual User Interface (MUI) or current equivalent. -- Suzanne S.

Yes, you're right.
I don't know much about the MUI pack, but the information in Microsoft's KnowledgeBase doesn't say anything about supplying an English UI in a non-English version of Office. It's possible that the English UI is built in, and the Chinese UI just has to be turned off. I think this question should be reposted in the microsoft.public.word.international.features newsgroup. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

I agree that .international.features is a more promising and appropriate
venue for this question. Like you, I know zilch about international features. -- Suzanne S.

Hi Jay,
I don't know much about the MUI pack, but the information in Microsoft's KnowledgeBase doesn't say anything about supplying an English UI in a non-English version of Office. It's possible that the English UI is built in, and the Chinese UI just has to be turned off. Word 2000 - 2003: The MUI is available only for the English version. If you bought a localized version, you can't change the language interface. Word 2007: It's all one version, so the MUI will work no matter which localized version you've installed. Getting the MUI is the question. I'm not sure what the policy for Office 2007 is (haven't had the chance to ask). For earlier versions, only MSDN subcribers or those with volume licenses could get an MUI.
