Identify language automatically don't work properly

[Guest]

My word 2003 (swedish version) program is supposed to have german, english
and finish spell check. In the dialogbox it´s ticked for "Identify language
automatically". If I write more than 5 words in english or german it looks
like it works when I press the Enter key. But when I write in Finish (is that
the correct spelling by the way???) the language does not change. It remains
the last language I used before that. I know that the languages are installed
on my computer. At my office they have removed the Microsoft Office Tools
from the start-menu so I can not controll the settings from there. What to do?

Hi =?Utf-8?B?TWlh?=,

Does the spell check work for Finish?

If yes, then I'd contact Microsoft Support for Scandinavia. It might well be a
problem with the Finish language, specifically, since it works for other
languages.

If the spell check does not work, then you're going to have to take this up with
your IT-Administration, as the tools (or a System Policy) will be the only way
to activate the language.

And if the spell check accepts Finish as a language, then I would absolutely
contact MS, since it should be Finnish.
