French Translation

Guest

I would like to install a French (Canada) translation support for my
Microsoft Office 2003 Pro. I posted this question here because I know that
Microsoft Office is extremely large, and that many of you would probably have
the program as well. Can anyone help me out on this one?

That really cannot just be given out. It is for Corporate Enterprise users
and MSDN Premium subscribers only. You might find it from someone but to do
so is a violation of the agreement.

Just given out? I thought I could download it from a Microsoft support site
or something. So that's the only way you say? I cannot do it for free?

The language pack is not in that. I assumed that was what he was asking
for. If not my bad.

If you're looking for automated translations, be aware that even the best of
them are much less than oustanding. If you want to use an automated
translation just to get an idea of what something is about, or want to use
it as a guide to help you prepare your own manual transalation, it can be
useful. But don't expect it to produce a finished product, with properly
constructed sentences and accurate translations.

I know all that.... All I want is to be able to click
Tools-Language-Translation and then translate my sentences from English to
French (Canada)..... Simple. That's all I want. No one needs to warn me about
translations. I know the risks of improper translations. All I want is
someone to tell me how to enable Mcrosoft Office to do what I want. Someone
has already told me that it can't be done without subscribing to some
Microsoft thing. Can anyone confirm or elaborate on that, or can someone tell
me how I can do what I want?

Never heard of it. It is definitely not a d/l from Microsoft. You might be
able to find a 3rd party application that claims they can do that. Be aware
these types of things are very expensive and I have yet to see one that
works. Where there is a desire there is a product which claims they can do
that. But a claim is very different then reality. Never seen what you want
that integrates with Micorosft Office. Even if I did I wouldn't use it. It
likely involves COM and even then you don't have the language pack so the
result will be less than acceptable.

Have you tried asking in the Office surrender-monkey group?

How nice and polite you are to someone trying to help you, who doesn't know
what you already know.

Sorry, you've gotten all the help from me you're going to get.
