Here's the situation: I click "Insert -> Reference -> Caption" and get the Caption window. The problem is that the default caption labels in the "Label:" drop-down list are not in english but in greek! Furthermore, these default labels can't be deleted at all!
I have an english Windows XP SP3 installation and my Office version is english 2003 Professional with all recent updates.
I need to somehow reset these default labels back to english, preferably without reinstalling everything. Is there a place where I can just replace/edit them or maybe replace a file?
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance. |

Make sure that you have English set as the language for Office and Windows. See LINK

Thank you Stefan, it was the default language selection in the Microsoft Office 2003 Language Settings which needed adjusting.
