Re: Office Trial version was in Spanish

English Canada and English US is one and the same.

Uninstall all of the Office that is on your computer and then install the valid English which then you will be able to download.

The Office version that you received a couple of years ago is the cause of your issue. So uninstall it and then go and get your English download from wherever you want to

Somebody at Microsoft screwed up. Not for the first time. Not for the last time. Spanish speakers like myself are pretty happy about being able to get a Spanish localized version in the US. But it looks as if they overcompensated. Microsoft Office 2007 Language Settings only works to change interface language if you have multiple Office Language Packs installed, like this:

If you don't mind spending $24.95 you could download the English Language Pack for Office 2007.

Then you could switch the user interface between English and Spanish, like I can.

Thanks, Earle, for your quick reply. Normally, I would prefer a CD
replacement; however, I need to use the Powerpoint to turn in a homework
assignment before tomorrow night.

Do you, or anyone, know why, even after choosing to download the trial
version in English, it downloads in Spanish and how to change? I have went
into the Microsoft Office Tools and the closest English option I can find is
English (Canada), which does not seem to work.
