    Cannot install german language support for english Word 2003 installation

    I keep getting an error message saying "Cannot find proofing tool for German (Germany)" when I open a Word document with Word 2003. As far as I am aware German is already listed but grayed out/disabled as it’s installed.
    I have tried adding German language support again but since it’s already installed I am not able to add it. What can I do in this situation, is there anything I can try out to get rid of the error message???

    You might have got confused between the languages that are languages and the proofing tools that are installed. As far as my knowledge Office 2003 (English version) comes preinstalled with English, Spanish, and French proofing tools.
    For getting the German proofing tools, you will have to buy entire package of proofing tools. It has files for all other languages. After installing the package you can just enable the language you want from the language bar.
