[Guest]

Dear all,

I have a windows 2000 professionnal workstation version US.
One of our russian customer would like to handle russian language in there.

Can I handle that case by istalling only russion keyboard or do I have to install the Multi language pack ?

Note that for my customer, having text or beeing able to write russian text is enought for him.

thnaks for your help

Unlike Windows 95/98/ME, there is no Multilanguage pack for
Russian under Windows 2000/XP/NT - no need.

And you are right - it's easy to read/write in Russian on a pure English
Windows:
fonts are already there and all you need is just
add Russian keyboard layout.

But to do so, you _must_ have system CD-ROM.

Please see the details in the Russian Keyboard section of my site.
