Language packs for XP professional

[Saranjit Singh]

Hi,

I am currently using a Japanese version of WinXP professional. I have
searched through the Internet to find an English language pack for the OS.
There seem to be all sorts of language packs other than English available.

Does anybody know whether it is even possible to apply an English language
pack to the Japanese version of WinXP?

Ideally I would also want to change the menus and dialogs in Office
applications and VS.NET but can't seem to find any English language packs.
I'm wondering whether Microsoft creates any English language packs for its
applications.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Saranjit

The MUI Language Packs are only available as add-ons for the English
