I hope this is the right place to send this question to.
When I open paint to view a .bmp file and go to print
preview, my command buttons are all in Chinese!!
Does anyone have a suggestion on how to correct this back
to English?
Thanks in advance for any help given.
 
This happens if the file MFC42LOC.DLL is present in the System32 folder. To resolve the problem, rename the file MFC42LOC.DLL present in the C:\Windows\System32 folder (for Windows 2000/XP systems) and C:\Windows\System (for Windows 9x systems)

Thanks for the suggestion.
What is that file for?
And will it affect anything else that I'm using?
Thank you.

MS Knowledge Base Article Q249592

The information in this article applies to:
Microsoft Picture It! 2000

This behavior can occur because Microsoft Picture It! 2000
installs a system file used for Japanese formatting
(Mfc42loc.dll) that may not be compatible with some
programs.

This behavior has been reported with the following programs:

Microsoft Paint
Microsoft Word Pad
Microsoft Image Composer
Microsoft MapPoint 2000
Adobe PhotoDeluxe
Corel Photo-Paint

RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, rename the Mfc42loc.dll file:

1. Quit all running programs.
2. Click Start, and then click Shut Down.
3. Click Restart in MS-DOS mode, and then click OK.
4. Type the following line at the command prompt, and then
press ENTER:

ren c:\windows\system\mfc42loc.dll mfc42loc.old

5. Restart the computer.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft
Picture It! 2000.

NOTE:
I would recommend making a copy of the mfc42loc.dll and
archiving, before making this change.
