Laura, 
When you say language packs, are you referring to the proofing tools CD?

I had read on a blog that what you describe--enabling the tools in 2003,
uninstalling 2003, installing 2007 worked.  There haven't been a lot of
responses to my original query, so I concluded people weren't having
trouble with Word 2007.

Subject: #8767.2 Language Packs and new Office

It has been a little while since I experimented with this, but what I 
seemed to find was that if I had Office 2003 and all the language packs 
installed, and then installed Office 2007, and then uninstalled Office 
2003 (leaving the language packs intact), then the old language packs 
would work well with the new Office. If anyone has a more elegant way of

doing this, I'd love to know. I spent some considerable time wrestling 
with this and trying to contact Microsoft and others to make sure this 
would be legal. The consensus was that it would be - it seems MS doesn't

really care too much about getting paid for their language packs so long

as you have paid for Office.
