How can I put a German spelling checker onto Word 2002?

[Guest]

We have Office XP and run Word 2002 in English. Now we want to be able to
check texts we write in German. How can I get a German spell check? I've
looked all round the site and can't find one. Any ideas where I can download
one?

You need the Office Proofing Tools for Office XP, which is sold separately.
Information and a link to buy it online (US only) is at
