Spelling Checker problem

[XeDigital]

Dear Professionals,
i have an English office97 on a windows Xp english edition and my problem is
that the ms-word is not checking the spelling of any other languages except
the english...
do i need to install something or do i need to do some clicks on some
bottons so i'll be able to have a spelling checker in any languages??

Thanx

To enable spellcheck in additional languages, you would need to
install proofing tools for Office 97. Microsoft no longer offers
proofing tools for Office 97. Office 97 proofing tools used to
be available for purchase from
http://www.alki.com/Win/Office97/pt/ , but the ordering link on
that page doesn't seem to be active anymore. If you upgrade to
Office 2003, then you can purchase proofing tools for Office 2003
at
http://www.microsoft.com/office/editions/prodinfo/language/proofingtools.mspx
..

office97???
