Thai Language

I have Vista Home and would like to install Thai as an additional language.
What are the exact steps. Thanks in advance for your help.

On Vista Home editions, you can install Language Interface Packs, which
cover approx. 80% of the user interface. The full multilingual interface
packs are only available to those who have Ultimate. With a LIP installed
you can not easily switch between languages. In order to return to your
previous one, you will have to uninstall the LIP.

At the moment a Thai LIP for Vista is not among the 61 that have been
released or are in the making. You can bookmark and revisit these pages for
updated information:

Microsoft Local Language Program:

Should a LIP in your language become available at a later time, download and
install it from the Local Language site. Follow the on-screen instructions,
it is a pretty straight-forward procedure.

Note that your OS must have a supported parent language, ie. the LIP can
only be installed over certain versions of Vista. For most Asian languages,
an English version of Windows will do.

Office 2007 Language Packs allow input, display and proofing tools for
supported language, plus changing the user interface language of Office
applications on the fly, that is without rebooting or uninstalling anything.

I have the German one installed and it works great. I see from the drop
down menu that there is one for Thai.

Cheers,

In your other post asking the same question for Ultimate, I have addressed
what I think you are looking for. I use the Thai IME on all of my systems.
