Default Language Netherlands-Dutch

We are in the US but a user needs to edit a document in Netherlands-Dutch.
We see that it isn't an option under the languages that are installed by
default. I have spent time searching online to see if it can be installed
from the Word disk. Anyone have that info? I see in here in another post
where someone mentioned a language pack CD. I can't find on Microsoft's site
what language's are included in it. Thanks...

Dutch is not included in English language versions of Word. You will need to
buy the proofing tools. See

You can edit a document in whatever language you like, provided you have
fonts with the necessary character sets to cater for special characters. The
language pack provides the facilty to spell check such documents. Either
requires an understanding of the language in question. Word will not do the
translation for you. For that you need a Dutch speaker.

Besides a proofing tool you can also use a multi language pack.
The Dutch language code is 1043 (As Us = 1033 etc)
