Can you expand on what you mean? Do you mean a dictionary for another
language? -- Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup.

Hi ?B?UmVuZXNBbmdlbDE5NzU=?=,
The version of Word that I have came with Windows Office 97. It is the Dutch version. I dont think that the Dictionary for english is functioning properly. is there a way to get a english dictionary for this edition of Word. All non-English languages of Word do come with the English proofing tools. So you need to go through the Control Panel/Add programs and choose to "Change" the current installation of Office. You'll need the original CD. Drill down through the application offerings, under the general Office categories (such as Office tools) to find the proofing tools. Make sure the proofing tools for English are selected. When you OK, setup should install them. Then, in order to use English spell check, you have to select the text in the Word document and format it with English, using Tools/Lanuage/Set language.
