My brother bought a licensed Microsoft Office 2003 from China. The problem is that when I try to install Office 2003 error message comes stating that "The language of the installation package is not supported by your system."
It seems to be that it is a Chinese edition. I have heard that certain files when downloaded and run in the directory containing office 2003 can change the language. Is there any solution for this problem???
