Overview of Office 2003 Multilingual Resources

page: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ork2003/...1402101033.aspx scroll down till you see a chart

Yes,but i just cant find the link on where to download these MUIs (particularly the english MUI),can anyone provide me the link?
Budapest
I don't believe that the MUI's are free to download - you have to pay for them.

I also believe that the MUI's only work with the English version of Office. That is, if you want to use multiple languages you have to buy the English version of Office with the MUI. Non-English (or localized) versions of Office cannot be changed to other languages.

QUOTE
...localized versions do not usually support the ability to switch the language of the user interface

If your friend allready did the online registration you won't be able to activate it based on the present serial anyway

You don't need Internet access to activate the M$ Office Products, not unless they started requiring it starting with the Office 2003. I'll do a check on it though. But I'm sure his version is already activated.

Well my friend let me do the registration part (which was still italian so he told me where to put this and that) I still have the serial with me but should i rather consider buying an english version? since i think theres no other way changing the language to english...
fozzie
Or you could try OpenOffice which has, almost, the same functionalities as M$Office.
Commander Gman
Ok,good idea fozzie! but one question,will Microsoft Office be able to open OpenOffice files?
jgweed
OpenOfficeOrg can open MS office documents, and save as MS formats.
