I've reinstalled MS Office 97 (my favorite Word version), and now I can't run the Spanich spellchecker in Word (it does work for English, though). I get an error message saying that it can't find the Spanish dictionaries.

First try: no luck. Then it asked for the CD, which I inserted (don't know if it did anything) but then it seemed to get its act together and the spell checker was found. Beats me - but it worked (this all in version 2000).
