Yea so I have to write a essay on Leonardo Da Vinci for next wednesday but it has to be done at home with Word.
I also need a swedish language pack for spell check.

I've tried to do this myself but I can't find a language pack :(

can anyone link me to a download that would work and give me Word (2003+) and a swedish language pack.

Thanks. ;)

The school expect you to buy Word? That's a bit cheeky... Do you have that program which is like word that comes with the PC? Additionally, you could try OpenOffice:

http://www.openoffice.org/

The Word version on that saves as a .doc file so effectly the same thing :P

It also has dictionaries, found here:

I agree with GommeInc. Are you sure your teacher didn't just say Word because he/she is ignorant?

If you're not keen on installing OpenOffice.org, take a look at Google Docs (free online software, and it can produce Word-compatible .doc files, like OpenOffice).

yup my teacher really expects us to get word or something compatible with word files.

In that case, they'll never know if you do it in google docs or open office :)
