SYMPTOMS
When you create a contact in Outlook and later change your encoding settings, the contact items created before the change display the previously used language settings in the title bar of the contact.



RESOLUTION
If the encoding setting is changed to the setting that displays in the title bar of any such contacts, the encoding is no longer displayed in the title bar of the item.



MORE INFORMATION
Microsoft Office 2000 programs support editing and viewing of documents in more than 80 languages by taking advantage of the Unicode text encoding standard. If you work with documents that contain text in more than one language, if you work in a multinational organization, or if you share documents with people who use Office on systems that run in other languages, you or your system administrator can customize Office to handle conventions and requirements unique to each language. You can also make language-specific commands and features available in Office.

Here are a few examples of ways you can use multilingual features:
 * Automatic language detection
 * Correct date, time, number style
 * Asian characters
 * Text editing in right-to-left languages
 * Dual font support
 * Databases and lists
 * Web pages

For more information about encoding settings and international options, click the Office Assistant, type multilingual features, click Search, and then click to view "About multilingual features in Office."

NOTE: If the Assistant is hidden, click the Office Assistant button on the Standard toolbar. If Microsoft Help is not installed on your computer, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
