Office 2000 multilingual

| One of our customers in Holland has a problem with our Excel 2000 based
application which we need to try and repeat. However, Office 2000 doesn't
appear to be available for downloads although strangely Office 95 is still
there.
Where can we get a copy of the Office 2000 multilingual CD-ROMs?
We stopped asking for the non-English CD-ROMs a while back (as we never used
them) but need this one now :-)
Thanks, Rob.

Ahh that old chesnut. See what happens if you let the legal guys in :-)

There's a chance we have an old copy as we don't tend to throw them away,
just put them in a *big* box in the server room. Just a daunting task to
search though them all.
Thanks, Rob.

After spending about 30 mins sifting though the *huge* box of old MSDN
CD-ROMs, I found the Dutch Office 2000 CD-ROM!
And repeated the bug which is even better news.
It's due to Dutch Excel localising Boolean values when converted to strings:
Dim X As String
X = True
Debug.Print X
Prints "True" in English but "Waar" in Dutch. We were converting Boolean
values to strings when building a SQL UPDATE/INSERT statement. Whilst Excel
is happy working with waar and unwaar, Jet isn't so happy about :
Update [MyTable] Set [BooleanField]=waar Where [ID]=12
Cheers, Rob.
