Hi Adrian,
The Office MUI Packs (for changing menu language) aren't supported for editions of Office 2003 other than the Microsoft Office 2003
Multilingual User Interface (MUI) pack edition with enterprise/volume license, but the Windows version being OEM or other shouldn't
impact.
You may want to review the chapter from the Office 2003 Resource Kit here that covers deploying with and adding on specific MUI
packs to see if the steps you used are those requested.

=============
The basic situation, as I understand it, is that with the English Office 2003
install, the office menus, dialogs, etc are still in english, and not
locaized to spanish.
The MUI comes in in an attempt to correct that situation (without having to purchase a localized version of Office Pro, since we had
already purchased the Office MUI pack).
I just can't figure out why the MUI installer thinks Office 2003 Pro isn't installed. Do I need to slipstream an MUI service pack
into the MUI install set first? I'm reasonably sure that the Office install on this machine has all of the Office updates applied,
but I don't know if that would make a difference.
I don't know if the copy of Windows is an OEM spanish version or retail...if it makes a difference, I'll ask, but I know that it's
not English-language windows with the windows MUI for spanish. It was purchased in Costa Rica by the user in question, but I don't
know if it came with the PC, or if it was purchased seperately (an after the fact). <<

I hope this helped you,
