Thx Cindy, but no joy in mudville....
I installed just the dictionaries as you suggested to C
rogram files and it
appeared to install ok........
Started up word (English version) and went to check a Portuguese doc. Error
msg appeared [mssp3pb.dll & mssp 232.dll] not available.
Perusing previous blogs, I searched for the *.lex files, and copied them to
c
F/MSShared/proof.... but still no joy. Now the error shows [custom dic
///....not available]
Hmmm. time to uninstall Office, and reinstall? I hate that cuz I gotta call
in and explaing why I am installing Office on a new machine......

Hi =?Utf-8?B?SlNwZW5jZXI=?=,
How do I get the Portuguese dictionary off the CD and onto my machine?
The following instructions should work, but no guarantees, and you want to be
very careful:
1. Control Panel/Add Remove programs; you want to "add" a program
2. Use the Brazilian Office CD when prompted to insert a disk or CD
3. Make SURE to select the custom type of setup
4. Set everything listed to not be available (a Rex X)
5. Now drill down through the Office tools, looking for the Proofing tools.
6. Set ONLY the Brazilian tools to "Run from my computer"
7. OK your way through setup, making sure you don't allow it to remove other
programs, or anything else
At the end, it should end up installing only the Brazilian tools
