translate offline from English/(Swiss-)German/French/Spanish...

[Guest]

In word 2000 I used to right-click a word choose “Translate†and select from
language … to language … - like a dictionary.

Now I installed Office 2003 and this feature does not work anymore, but I
get redirected to a website.But I want to work offline...

Under “Translation options†I un-checked “use online dictionary†but that
does not help :-(. What am I doing wrong?

The functionality does still work in Word 2003, but you do have to have the
proper dictionaries installed. Which version of language version of Word do you
have? Since no single language version will have the combination of languages
you mention, have you purchsed the Office 2003 proofing tool CD and installed
the languages you need?
