Good afternoon!

We're going to be purchasing new PC's with Vista and will also make the
jump to Office 2007.  The MS specs indicate that we will be able to
download the language packs that don't come with our English edition
(French and Spanish are in the package); we'll need the thesaurus,
dictionary, spell checks for German, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, Arabic
and Hebrew.  Some bloggers (claim that the Office 2003 multilingual
proofing tools still work, a necessity because Office 2007 doesn't have
all the languages that 2003 did).

Would someone mind sharing his or her experience with this? I don't
recall having seen anything on the list serve about this yet. 

Thanks in advance.
