Changing language of application

[Alfredo_CPA]

My excel menu and everything else is in English. I will do some training to
Spanish speakers that have Excel menu in Spanish.

How can I change the whole application to Spanish?

Thanks

Purchase a Spanish version of Excel.

I think that there are Office Language packs that you can purchase.

Here's one for office 2007:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/suites/HA102113681033.aspx

From that site:

How much do language packs cost?

Office Language Packs have a suggested retail price of $24.95 (U.S.) or their
foreign currency equivalent; the Multi-Language Pack has a suggested retail
price of $199 (U.S.). Please note that prices may be higher in other currencies
due to additional taxes and/or transaction costs.

How can I buy individual Office Language Packs?

Office Language Packs are available for purchase exclusively on Office Online.
To buy an Office Language Pack visit the Office Language Packs home page, click
the “buy a single language pack now” link, and follow the instructions. Please
note that individual language packs are not available through volume pricing and
licensing programs.

How can I buy the Multi-Language pack?

The Multi-Language Pack is available for purchase in major retail stores and via
their Web sites, as well as through Microsoft volume licensing programs.

Thanks Dave

Had heard of these but never looked into them

Much cheaper than my suggestion.

No

See Dave's reply about language packs.

I've never used them, either.

But I think Ron de Bruin has.

If that's correct, maybe Ron can chime in to see if they actually work <vbg>.

Thanks Dave and Gord.
I thought it was a matter of changing some kind of setup but now I know it
costs money. Well it is what it is...

Hi Dave

Yes I run a Dutch language pack on my laptop with English Office 2007
Working OK and easier and cheaper then in the older Excel versions.

For <2007 you can buy a MUI Office version

I also installed the Dutch Vista language pack on my English Vista
I can switch between Dutch and English on that machine now
