Default English UK spell checker doesn't work

Hello all,

I am having problems with my English UK spell checker on Microsoft Office
Ultimate 2007 in the sense it doesn't work. An error message appears saying:

"Cannot find proofing tools for English (U.K.). If you have the proofing
tools, try installing or re-installing them. Contact your local reseller to
obtain Office Proofing Tools. For more information, see Microsoft Office
Site."

I have downloaded Service Pack 1 and attempted to download various other
ones like hotfix 07, plus a language one, a Word 07 plus others but they say
i either don't have that copy of word on my laptop or that i have already
downloaded it but it doesn't check for English UK spellings!

I would be grateful if someone could tell me how to make this work.

Thanks, Tom

What language version of Office 2007 do you have? My US English version
includes the UK proofing tools.

Hello, thanks for your response. I have the Office Ultimate 2007 WIN32
English Disk kit direct not to US DVD or FULF. It also says its origin is
Ireland. Hopefully that will help?

Hey, i just found on my reciept it says that the origin was the United States
but dispatched from the UK. I got it from the Ultimate Steal websites for
students.
