I won't you with the details, suffice it to say I have been having major problems with my pooter, which is worrying cos' i need it for my business.

After having had the hard drive formatted and everything re-installed only 3 weeks ago, i am struggling with more problems.

My question is this and I do realise I am clutching at straws but maybe one of you lads/ladies may know.

I am running Win98SE a short while ago I had to upgrade MS Office to a newer version it is now 2000 premium.and here it comes it is in Spanish could there possibly be a conflict with Win98SE in English and Office in Spanish.

I get some things coming up in English and some in Spanish... Word has a bit of a snit with the spell checker it faults everything for a while then it seems to realise I am typing in English then it reverts to the English dictionary. any clues anyone....A virtual double for the one that solves this mystery

cheers
Phil

Have you got the latest office patches from the microsoft website?
These seem to solve a lot of os/office conflicts.
Dunno about the spanish bit though.
I would suggest you uninstall it, take it back to where you got it and order an English one.

Dave W: that has crossed my mind more than once these last few weeks believe me!!

Fodder: The Office that I have has alternative languages i.e. Castellano, Euskera, Gallego, Catalan, but not the local Asturianu (Bable) or English the Spanish I can manage without too many problems I just wonder if Win98 is getting it's knickers in a twist and English programmes are not an off the shelf item here:mad:
