>>Thanks for the response, Ben. I have a few questions.

>>1. What do you mean by changing the default language of the computer and how would you do it? My machine's version of Windows is permanently English.
>>
>>2. You mean I should install an English version of Office? I actually have copies of that but wondered if it would create trouble later to use the product key from a spanish version of Office on an English version of Office. Another way to ask that question is: are MS Office product keys language specific.

>>>1. Temporarily change the default language of your computer to English
>>>2. Install Office (no problem for the product key)
>>>3. When installation is done, change the default language back
