Office 2007 Portuguese Proofing Tools

[Manik]

I am using English version of Office 2007 running on Vista Ultimate. I often write documents in Portuguese and need to Spell Check and Grammar Check there documents whilst mainting the Office interface in English. I will like to know how and where I can buy Proofing Tools for this language. Thanks.

I think that the only way to add Portuguese proofing tools to an English language version of Office 2007 is to buy and install the Portuguese Single Language Pack for Office 2007 and that way you can have it.

How do you install just the proofing tool?

As anyone using Portuguese proofing tools probably knows, significant changes to the spelling of Portuguese came into effect at the end of January of this year, reducing the differences between Brazilian and continental Portuguese spelling to virtually none. Does anyone have any idea when an update reflecting those changes will be forthcoming from MS for the Office 2007 Portuguese Language Packs?

Obrigado,

Ralph
