Hi,

Today I've noticed that all the word documents I open have tw
intersecting lines in all four corners of the page.

I have no idea how I managed to get them there, no clue what th
correct term is, and would like to get rid of them.

Thanks in advance,

Squid&Chip

Hmm...

Apparently I have to open Microsoft Office Tools via the Program Menu
and access 'Microsoft Office XP Language Settings' to disable
non-English languages.

But the Language Settings option is not there...

I only have:

-Activate Product
-Microsoft Clip Organizer
-Microsoft Office Application Recovery
-Microsoft Office Document Scanning
-Save My Settings Wizard

...?
 
Is Office XP the version you have? When you open the menu, are there double
arrows at the bottom indicating more menu entries not displayed?
 
Suzanne,

There are definitely no more menu entries, and I don't have the ful
Office XP package installed. I have all six applications and can us
them all except for Frontpage and Access (which I don't need anyway)
 
Hi Squid & Chips,

The Office program for the language settings is
SetLang.exe if it's installed. You may want to use
Start=>Search to located it.

If you've checked the installation of Office Tools under
Microsoft Office XP in Add/Remove Programs in the Windows control panel for the Language Settings Tool and it's showing as 'Run
from my computer' state then you may want to run a repair/reinstall of Office from there and choose the option to restore shortcuts.

Mr. Bob Buckland,

I couldn't find 'SetLang.exe' usingStart/Search, nor could I locate
Microsoft Office XP in the Add/Remove Programs section of the Control
Panel...

I also had a look through the Program Files/Microsoft Office folder,
and I couldn't find any file related to Language settings, or settings
of any kind for that matter...but then again, I couldn't make sense of
most of the file names anyway.

Hi S&C,

If there isn't a Microsoft Office or Microsoft Word choice listed in Add/Remove Programs in the Windows control panel, you can
place your Office CD (or if you have MS Works Suite, CD#1) in the CD/DVD drive and run Setup.exe from there to get to the
repair/reinstall/change feature sets.
