Default Custom caption label annoyance

Dear All



I've both Office 2003 and Office 2007 installed on my notebook, running Windows 7. I'm in Hungary, though my Windows and all software are English. Lately I've realized that due to some strange regional option, standard caption labels of Word like "Figure", "Equation" and "Table" are missing, and only their Hungarian equivalents are available ("Ábra", "Egyenlet", "Táblázat"). This -I thought - should pose no problem, since I can add custom labels. I've therefore added "Figure" to the built-in label-list. However due to the Hungarian custom, now The number PRECEDES the label instead of the general European custom, that is I get "1. Figure" instead of "Figure 1.". I'm aware of the fact that one can even customize the numbering of labels, although I was unable to find a way to send the number AFTER the label.

The only cause of this strange phenomenon could be that in the Windows regional options I've set Hungary as my locality. Furthermore, as I remember, prior to installing Office 2007, Word 2003 worked correctly, with proper English labels and numbering.

Is there any way to revert this feature to the original English version without uninstalling Office 2007, reinstalling 2003 or without any kind of installation? Also I would like to remove the built-in Hungarian labels, though the "Delete Label" button is disabled for them.

Thanks in advance

István
