German dictionary for Word 2002 (Office XP)

Guest

Hello,

I have Office XP (Word 2002) would like to install a German spell checker
but I can't find the German dicionary. Could anybody let me know how I could
install this feature?

Thank you very much,

Jerome.

Depends on what language version of Word 2002 you have. A German
dictionary is included with the following language versions:
Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Estonian, Finnish, French,
German, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian,
Norwegian, Polish, Slovenian, Swedish, and Turkish. If you don't
have one of these language versions, you can purchase the Office
XP Proofing Tools CD and install a German dictionary from that.
See
http://www.microsoft.com/office/previous/xp/multilingual/prooftools.asp
for more information. I don't believe Microsoft still sells this
CD directly... you will probably have to look for it at a
conventional or online retailer. Note that the Office 2003
Proofing Tools CD will not work with Office XP.

I have been trying to find out the same think Jerome. Have you had any luck
on the subject yet? My email is (e-mail address removed) if you do. Send me
your email address as well and when I get down investigating the question I
will send you a quick email!

Thank you JoAnn. Somebody else in the community stated that this program will
not work with windows XP. Is that correct? And would your recommendation
also apply to a request for the German dictionary in Outlook as well?

also - I have Windows XP.

The system requirements state you *must* have Win 2000 (SP3) or Win XP. I
suspect you may have misread the post about it not working in XP.

A quick check leads me to believe it will work in Outlook.
