Translation services beyond Microsoft Word
In previous versions, only Microsoft Word provided translation
functionality. With the new Research feature you can translate text in any of
these products: Microsoft Office Excel 2003, Microsoft Office OneNote 2003,
Microsoft Office Outlook 2003, Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003, Microsoft
Office Publisher 2003, Microsoft Office Visio 2003, Microsoft Office Word
2003, and Internet Explorer.
The first time you use translation services, you will be required to install
the client dictionaries. After installing, the online dictionaries are
available automatically when you connect to the Internet. From Translation
options in the Research task pane, you can add and remove the language pairs
available to you. If you do not see the bilingual dictionary you want, you
may need to install the Microsoft Proofing Tools.
