Default Spanish office language packs

I need a spanish spellcheck for windows word 2007.
How do i get this without purchasing the multi-language-pack. I don't want
to change the language of my computer - I just want it to correct my mistakes
when I write in spanish.
Is it possible just to buy the Spanish office language pack?

Office 2007 is the first version for which you can buy just the proofing
tools for one language. The price is US$24.95 per pack, and they're
available only through Office Online.

Go to
http://buy.trymicrosoftoffice.com/bu...amily=langpack.
In the blue box in the upper right, select Spanish in the dropdown and click
the Buy Now button.

Not quite true. When you buy a language pack, you get more than "just the
proofing tools" - you also get menus and help in the new language. However,
you may choose use only the proofing tools, and keep menus and help in
English.

Point taken. What I was trying to emphasize was that you can get a package
for a single language, unlike the Proofing Tools packages in earlier
versions that contained dozens of languages.

Yes, and if I weren't slowly losing my editorial skills I would have
written that in the first place. :-)

Depending on the region where you bought your copy of Office, you may have
Spanish (and French) proofing languages included but not installed with Word
2007. Certainly my US sourced English language copy has both. Re-run Office
setup from the Windows add or remove programs applet and check.
