Anyone know how to change the language on Microsoft Word?
I recently came across a copy of Microsoft office XP...lets just say it fell off the back of a "cyber truck" and when I opened it up, it was a Swedish version of it. Is there any way for me to change the default program language to English?

1. I don't know, but that is a familiar tale
I found a box of Word discs a few years ago. It had a bunch of different versions, Spanish, German, Italian, even Chinese and Arabic. But I never installed any but the English version. I thought about switching a friend's version with the Arab or Chinese one as a joke, but I decided I didn't want to get my ass kicked. :)

5. I have W2K Pro but...............
I think it pretty much the same on XP. Go to control panel and look for "regional settings". Open that and change the language.
