Should be able to download spell/grammar check tools for individu.

Office 2000 only lets your spell check in English, Spanish, and French... One
should be able to go to the microsoft website and download additional
language dictionaries and grammer tools to install in "Office 2000 Word", or
any other version of "Office".

I keep getting Auto updates for French Grammer etc. As I speak no other
language than English, this, to me is a complete waste of time. Office
updates tell me my system needs these updates. I believe the language updates
should be available to all, inc "all" languages ,but let it be a preference
,and 'not' an automatic update.

Hi Tomar,

The updates through http://officeupdate.com are intended to keep the entire purchased Office product complete and current, not just
the presently selected features/subset.

French, English and Spanish proofing tools are included
in the Office XP and 2003 product CDs, i.e. the updates
are those that apply for the product you purchased.

To 'hide' any of the recommended updates you can use
http://update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate which provides both Windows and
Office XP/2003 updates, rather than http://officeupdate.com

Different localized language editions of Office come with
different area languages. For the English language edition
of MS Office you can add additional language tools
with Office Proofing Tools Kit.
