Running French and English versions of Word

[Beeblebrox]

We have had some serious problems with installing both the French and
English versions of Office in the same user account under OS X. They
do not wish to coexist (probalby because there is not discreet
preference folder built by Office for the two different versions).

Aside from using Panther and running the French version as one user
and the English version as another, has anyone had success running
simultaneous copies of two different language types of Office?

Thanks

Bad, bad idea.... They two localizations have to share the same
prefernece files which results in some dialogs in ENglish in the French
version and vice versa...

Indeed.

No, and I don't see how you could :-\
