Thanks for replies on Language Packs

[Timothy Sergay (SEELANGS)]

Many thanks to all who replied on- or off-list to my question about
Microsoft Language Packs. A departmental colleague of mine, a specialist
in second-language educational technology, reports that Microsoft is
saying that Office 2007 language packs will not be available until Jan 08.
He advises people who need proofing tools right away to downgrade to the
previous iteration of Office (2003) and buy the related language pack; "If
they complain to microsoft they might get credit for their Office 2007
purchase." Apparently it cost considerable efforts to get any kind of
answer from Microsoft on this score at all.

Reports have come of success using the Office 2003 proofing tools with
Office 2007; the relevant link:

Best wishes,
Tim Sergay
