• Windows 10 Proofing Tools

Hi, I am quickly learning Office 2007 was a BIG mistake! I am just happy I was smart enough to stick with XP PRO! But school is using Office 2007 so I needed it-got quite a steal on Office 2007 Ultimate, so it made it 'seem' worth it. But I really need German proofing tools! And if I am not mistaken it was included in 2003??

And is there a way to install them off that CD and actually have them work in 2007?? I see I can buy a Language Pack but I do NOT want to change the UI!!! I only want spellcheck, grammar, thesaurus etc.and for $25 it's not worth it for a Language Pack!!! I also heard they will be selling a Multi-Language Proofing Tools Kit with 50 languages and 3 CD's. I ONLY NEED GERMAN!!! I would love to call Bill and tell him what an idiot he is!

Anyone know if I can pull this off without f. everything up? Anyone successful in this? Office is supplied with a limited set of proofing tools, the choice of which depends on the region where the product is sold. Additional proofing languages must be bought separately.

However for those users who upgrade from Office 2003 and who had purchased the Office 2003 proofing tools set, if you use the facility in the Office 2007 setup routine to upgrade Word 2003, then the additional Office Proofing Tools will be retained and the proofing tools will work much as they did before (albeit with a few anomalies listed later). If you have un-installed Office 2003, including its proofing tools, it is possible to add them back after Office 2007 has been installed.

To do this install Office from the Office 2003 installation disc and select a Custom Install Note: Clearly if you wanted to keep Office 2003 applications, such as Word 2003, alongside Office 2007 (see /Toolbarsinword2007.htm ) then you should not have un-installed Office, but allowed the Office 2007 installation routine to take account of your preference. Next, install the Office 2003 proofing tools: Now remove Office 2003 from the Windows Control Panel, Add or Remove Programs applet. This will prevent Microsoft Updates from updating the whole of Office. Open Word 2007 (or any other Office 2007 application).

This will integrate the Office 2003 proofing tools into the Office 2007 application. Please post back if you have any more problems or questions. If this info is useful, please give a thumbs up.

An of this blog is available. In the new blog I explain how to use the Microsoft Office Multi-Language Pack 2007 and how to install extra Proofig Tools for Office 2007.

I'm working with Office 2007 now. Unfortunately Microsoft only released German, French and Chinese language packs. But proofing tools for other languages aren't available yet. When you have installed Office 2003 and you upgraded to Office 2007 Beta 2 you're proofing tools are automatically recognized and added to your new Office Product.

Luckily you can install the Office 2003 tools afterwards as well. Just follow the steps and you're Office will be upgraded. 84 thoughts on “ Install another Office 2007 Proofing Tools (e.g. Dutch)”. Sergey It doesn't work! 🙁 After about 5% completed, a error appears and setup does a roll-back action.

Information from the System Log: 'Product: Microsoft Office Shared MUI (English) 2007 (Beta) - Error 1706. Setup cannot find the required files.

Check your connection to the network, or CD-ROM drive.' After trying to install both Russian and English tools, I tried to do so only with English part, but the result was the same. What can this problem be caused? ↓. Sergey I installed Beta2TR above Beta2. After installing Office 2003 Proofing Tools, I launched Word 2007.

Office Configuration window was shown and it began updating config. There error appeared. There's a screenshot: Now I even uninstalled all the Office 2003 components, but it still wants to configure itself and the error is caused!

So I have to download Office and setup Beta2 and TR again. What's the MUI version?

The default language of my Office 2007 is English, of Windows XP is Russian. Maybe, this would help you to know the version. ↓. Hege okay.so something isn't working here.

I installed office 2K7, and then tried to run office 2K3 proofing tools.suprise, in the beginning of the installation there's the same pop-up, which says this product can be installed only for office 2003. You were talking somethin about 'the default Proofing Tools' should be installed first.so where can i get this 'default Proofing tools'? I wouldn'r like to uninstall office 2K7, reinstall 2K3 with proofing tools, uninstall office 2K3 and reinstall office 2K7:S too much work. ↓. Dallas Smith I searched the Web and really haven't found a good answer, so I will ask you here. Is it possible to have 2 user interfaces with Office 2007? Not just the proofing tools, but also the visual aspect in a different language.

We attended a Mircosoft Launch Event recently, and one of the copies of the office we ackquired was installed in spanish. I don't want to replace this language, but I wonder if it is possible to install an English UI to be able to change the UI when an English speaking person uses the pc. If so, how do I go about doing this? Purchase language pack?

Special installations? Switch back and forth? I believe I have seen that the SLP (single language pack) are priced at $24.95, but I do not know where. Searched, but could not find this. Thanks, Dallas.

↓. Yoosik It is great tip. I was trying to install Korean too without success. I followed your advice until step 1 where only three (English, French, Spanish) language option shown as your snapshot. Then I couldn't figure out how to go further to step 2 where many language option shown. Anyhow I finished the procedure without step 2 in your advice.

Now now change but only new program called, 'Microsoft Application Recovery'. Now when I insert Office 2003 CD, there is no option for 'install' (because a new program from 2003 CD already installed as I said) and just for 'repair' option. What is your advice now? Thank a lot in advance. ↓. Evelyn Hi there. I, too, am desparately looking for the Microsoft Office 2007 Single Language Pack - German, to no avail so far.

I'm not sure the trick above will work for me as my computer runs on Vista - and I would also have to borrow Office 2003 from someone to install first and then upgrade). So I guess the official SLP would be the best option, but there is info on the Microsoft Website if it has been released in German or, if not, when this will happen. Very disappointed und most of all frustrated. Does anyone have any further information? Thanks heaps. ↓.

Alexgrnoob first (required).sorry for my bad english 😛 second(required).GREEK working fine THKS!!!!! Some info for you (optional) I am running windows Vista business after instaling microsoft office 2007 i had problems with greek spelling. Well i had no greek spelling at all. I did the follow steps: - Step 1 Install Office 2003 (Custom Install) Step 2 (i did full install in step 1) Step 3 Open a Office 2007 Product NO Step 4 Select your Language options NO Step 5 Update your machine - So in the end (Step 1+2+3) i had greek spelling in Office 2007.thanks!!!

Question (required) one question.Can i unistall the 2003 office or i will have problems??(i hate the old style office 2003). ↓. Kiliwatch Eh. I'm not sure if I'm doing things right. I had office 2003, but switched to 2007.

So, I installed Office 2003 again, exactly as you said, Custom install, de-select everything except proofing tools. However, I don't have a button 'next'. First time I tried it it was called 'Install', second time I tried it it was called 'Update', and it keeps being 'Update'. And if I click that, it just goes installing without ever asking me if I want to install other proofing tools.

So I never get that second screen. ↓. Patrick Hi mate, I recently got office 2007 and sadly it had no italian nor german proofing tool, I tried out your method and at first it didn't work, also after repeating the whole procedure twice, it simply didn't make the checking from step 3. After fidgeting around in Word 2007 a little I found a Microsoft Office Diagnostics (it is in Word Options / Resources), ran that thing and magically the two languages appeared, so I made only Step 1 and 2 plus the diagnosis and it works. Thanks a lot for this blog mate, I really apreciate! 😉 Cheers Patrick.

↓. Follow the link above for the modified setup file for MS Office 2003 Proofing Tools. Replace the file on the original Proofing Tools CD with this one. This patch skips the version check performed at start-up and you can install your 2003 proofing tools on a Office 2007 with no problems whatsoever. I don't know what are those crackheads at microsoft up to but the old Proofing Tools are perfectly compatible with office 2007. (exept a minor glitch with romanian characters) Frak them, I'm not waiting around forever and pray they will release a 2007 Proofing Tools pack.

Take the file it works 100%. By the way it's spy/add/virus free.
