Some Microsoft office applications seem to want to work independently of regional settings to some extent .
For example on my setup I have to specify UK English in both the control panel and Microsoft Office applications but I am using XP Pro still and Office 2003. in Office 2003 you can examine setting under the language settings utility. You find this by going to Start - Programs - Microsoft Office - Microsoft Office Tools - Language settings. I do not know if this is equivalent in Vista and or Office 2007.

I was finally able to set the language to English, then the JAWS authorization program was happy. One odd side note. When I went to Microsoft and tried to down load back grounds for the E-Mail program I received a message stating that JAWS was not authorized for this language... again. Also the back grounds did not download. I am OK with this but it just makes me wonder what is the computer thinking? God bless, Mark God loves you!
