Hi Robin,
It appears that the PC was installed using
the 'MS Office XP Professional plus Frontpage'
Corporate edition (check your listing in
Add/Remove Programs in the Windows control panel)
while you may have separate CDs for
MS Office XP Professional
MS Office FrontPage 2002
The combined edition uses a file Proplus.msi and
for repairing or updating Office the CD the installer
will ask for is the edition used to install the product.
If you don't have a matching disk set then you may want
to backup your files then uninstall from the Control Panel,
restart the PC then install from the CDs you do have.
Except when you've added the MS Office Proofing Tools
(sold separately) or installed the MultiUser Interface
language packs the only multilingual 'editing' features
supported in Word will be grammar and spell check
(English French Spanish), language keyboards installed
through the Control panel and Speech Dictation (U.S. English
and 2 far east languages). You can type in other languages
after enabling the language support for that language with
the MS Office Settings tool in Start=>Programs.
==========
I have Office XP Professional and I am attempting to:
"Enable editing of multiple languages" from the Help menu.
The dialogue box asks for Office XP with Front Page. I have Front Page
on a separate CD.
Neither have "proplus.msi" available. A search of Google provided many
pages with the query but none with an answer that suits my problem.
What can I do?
Thanks,
Robin Chapple >>
