Loosing customized tags when changing the UI language of OneNote

[Flaxon]

Hello,

we wanted to give all our people the same set of tags in OneNote 2007 by
copying the 'Preferences.dat'.

So far it worked first on the clients with English UI language. But if we
copied the file on clients with a different (Office) UI language, the
customized tags can´t be seen.

I did some research and found out that you are definitely loose your custom
tags when you are changing the UI language of Office or the tags were
customized in a different UI language of Office. Also, if you switch back to
the previous language, the custom tags did NOT come back!

Same is for the default tags if you edit them - they will be reseted.

This seems to be a major bug to me in ON2007? Are there any workarounds?

Please give me some support on this issue. 'Never change your UI language'
is not a workable solution to this issue.

Thanks
Flaxon
