Language issue in Office 2008 calendar

Hi,

I have problem with language in the Entourage. The top part where I can scroll months, there is the correct language (jaanuar - in mother language) but in the calendar itself, there are foreign words for week days. This is a little bit annoying. I went through all the preferences but it seems that there is no option to change language for the those parts. I really don't know how to resolve this.

Please see screenshot here ->http://martinko.planet.ee/screen-1.tiff <http://martinko.planet.ee/screen-1.tiff>
Note* Jaanuar is correct, but the "prosinec, leden" etc are foreign language(polish I guess).

Can you please tell me your language setting? What language do you have
selected in the International menu? I'll pass this along to the developers.

I am also having language problems. My language is set to English. The words month and year are in English and the other text is in Spanish. All of my templates are in Spanish.

Hi Lou,

your templates are not in Spanish, they are in Fake Latin. This is also
referred to as "greeking"; the text is made to look like normal text, but
since it is impossible to understand the actual words, you can focus on the
appearance of the text on the page rather than be distracted by the meaning
of the words.

For future reference: if you experience a problem, please create a new
post/thread. Otherwise, you're hijacking someone else's thread, which can
confuse things for both the original poster and those who answer questions
around here. For instance, this discussion thread focuses on language
problems in *Entourage*, not Word.

I am also having language problems. My language is set to English. The words
month and year are in English and the other text is in Spanish. All of my
templates are in Spanish.

Hi Lou!

Your problem is not the same as the original poster's problem.

If you have an answer or comment for the original poster then please
respond within that thread. Otherwise, if you're looking for a solution
to your own problem -- no matter how similar to someone else's -- then
begin your own thread. Similar problems may not have the same solutions.

Hi Bill,

I managed to resolve this problem when I changed the international language settings to English. It seems that Mac doesn't support Estonian language for Entourage. Half of the Entourage calendar was Estonian and the weekdays were in Polish

I'm ok with that if it's in English, in first place it was just annoying if there's Polish and Estonian mixed.

Thank you for your help.

Martin
