English vs French dictionary?

[Guest]

I just downloaded Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007 and to my dismay, my
dictionary (and the only dictionary available to me on the site) is the
French Dictionary. How can I download an english dictionary? It has Word
2007

Could you give us the link you used for the download so that we can see
what's what?

I downloaded this from a DVD I got thru a special program at work.

Then you should enquire of your IT department or the person/company
who provided the DVD.

If this was a standard Office DVD (and not pirated material or some
special thing), then you should be able to install the proofing
tools after-the-fact. Insert the DVD. In Control Panel/Add Remove
programs choose to "Change" the installation. You want the
"customize" type of setup. Look for a category like "office tools"
or "shared tools". Somewhere in there you'll find the Proofing
tools, where you can select to install the English tools.

But, as I say, if this isn't a standard (legal) installation DVD
some things may not be available...

Does this problem occurs in Outlook Express or in Word?
