Default 2 Problems - Outlook language set to "French", can't click on "Lin

Hi, I have realized that my Outlook is set to French with no option to change
to English. When I called Microsoft, the tech said that his is set to French
as well with no other option. How do I cange it to English?

Also, I cannot access links in my emails without copying it to Outlook
Express. How can I get it to work so that I can just click on the links?

What is set to French the whole interface of Outlook or the Spelling. Did you
install a French version of Outlook. Are you residing in French Canada in Quebec.
There they sell Outlook in French or in English. If that is the case then you have
purchased the French version. You can try and have it exchanged at the Retailer
where you have purchased it explaining the mistake

Did you buy the French version?

If its spell check that is french, see
http://www.outlook-tips.net/archives/2006/20061228.htm

Do you get any errors when you click links? The most common one references
"restrictions in effect". This is a problem with IE, its not an Outlook
error. You need to reset your internet settings in IE's Tools, Internet
Options, Advanced tab. (Or Control panel, Internet options, Advanced tab).
See http://www.slipstick.com/problems/link_restrict.htm for more
information.
