Original Question: French grammar and spelling updates

[mickane]

2 questions below:

I actually would like to update the grammar and spelling check so that it is
up to date with International standards, as per the web site
http://www.orthographe-recommandee.info/intro.htm

Microsoft has an article regarding the French language reform at
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...FamilyID=7C3B16CF-45F3-4C24-9D55-A73BEED4E08C

It recommends downloading the new French dictionary from the Microsoft
France website.

1 - where is the update on the France site ... that's still a pretty big site

2 - is this available for Office XP as well, we use both

Thank you in advance,
Mike Kane

See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/892258/ "Description of the
updates for the Office 2003 French spelling checker and
thesaurus: April 12, 2005". As far as I know, this update does
not work with Office XP, and there is no equivalent update for
Office XP.
