Hi,
I work for a financial institution where - for compatibility reasons between different software - every user has to use the German setting. I prevented the change first by hiding the regional settings in the control panel, but there are still the office language settings with which they can fool around.
So I need to disable this thing too - or block the registry-key from being changed. Unfortunately I didn't find anything about this issue, except a Microsoft-Article dealing with Office Resource Kit, which I cannot use in this case.
Any idea?
 
Is there anything you can do via Group Policy?

Regional and Language Options

Location: User Configuration\Control Panel\Regional and Language Options

Description:
Contains settings to control language configuration for a user's desktop. Restrict selection of Windows menus and dialogs language.
 
This setting changes the menus and dialogs too, which is not wanted. But thanks for the idea.
