Chinese version of Office running on XP home English

Hey everyone,

I am looking for ideas on how to remedy my problem. I have been dealing with XP in Chinese for a long time (just remember where most things are). I finally got myself an English version and went to install Office.

Now the problem I am having is that my office cd is also in Chinese and now it doesn't want to work with the new operating system. Is there any way around this? Can I install language packs or something to allow this program to run?

I was feeling really great about getting my English version of XP but now I am almost starting to regret it.

Any ideas would be great!:cry

 

I think it depends on if the computer/software has MUI (Multilanguage User Interface)
