Office 2000 and Multilingual User Interface (MUI) Supported Configurations
The following are supported configurations of Microsoft Office 2000 and the MUI:
 * On a system that is running Windows 2000 or Microsoft Windows XP MUI, if the system language and the localized version of Microsoft Office 2000 are the same language, consider the operating system to be the localized version of operating system, which means that Microsoft offers full support for this environment.
