I am using Word X for Mac on Mac OSX.4 I have opened Russian and
Croatian in my international system preferences and can use characters
(eg from Lucida Grande) in many programmes - but not in Word (or
AppleWorks). How can I get Word to use, show and print them?

You need to upgrade to Office 2004. Word X does not do Unicode, but Word
2004 does - including Cyrillic and East European characters.
