Good day,
I did an upgrade from Office 03 that had the menus in French to Office 07.
The install went fine. The problem is that the folder labels are in French. I
would like to change the folders to their proper name in English. I have
tried to right click on the folder and go to properties and change the folder
name, but the text does not change. How can I change the name on these
default folders?
Thanks for your support.
 
Try using the ".../resetfoldernames" outlook switch to open the
profile. Information on Cammand-Line Switches can be found here:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/HP010031101033.aspx

/resetfoldernames: Resets default folder names (such as Inbox or
Sent Items) to default names in the current Office user interface language.
For example, if you first connect to your mailbox Outlook using a
Russian user interface, the Russian default folder names cannot be
renamed. To change the default folder names to another language
such as Japanese or English, you can use this switch to reset the
default folder names after changing the user interface language or
installing a different language version of Outlook.

Thanks for the reply. This took care of the problem. Sorry for the delay in
testing this, but it worked great.
Thanks for all of your assistance.
