Is there a Finnish proofing tool available for Word 2007?

[Guest]

I have the English language version of Office 2007 (Home and Student), but I
also need to proof texts in Finnish. Is there a Finnish proofing tool
available, and where? If not, is there anything I can do? Thanks so much!

You can buy a Language Pack for $25.

Start at http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/suites/FX102113661033.aspx and
click the "Buy a single language pack now" link in the Office Language Packs
box. That will lead you through the purchase and download.

I didn't go all the way through the sequence (I don't personally have a use
for a Finnish spell checker <g>), so I'm not absolutely sure the Finnish
pack is available yet -- Microsoft has been releasing packs since March, and
some of them won't be ready until sometime in May -- but I didn't get any
warnings about availability in the first screen after choosing the language.
