Microsoft Word Dialogs

I want to change the text in certain of the dialogs in Microsoft Word. So, I got reshack and opened up winword.exe and found nothing of interest. Then I opened all the other executables in the Office folder and also found nothing of interest. Does anybody know where this information is stored?

Have you tried looking through some of the dll's? FPCUTL.DLL and OMFC.dll has some dialogs

I looked at all of the DLLs in the Word folder, but the ones you mention are not among them. Where are they stored?

Hi gorcq.

I try reshacker this dialogs many times, but M$-Office open/salve/print dialogs are building with API in runtime.

Is possible but you have a developer one program for this:

See this delphi program example(change all title bar text very ):

http://delphi.about.com/od/windowsshellapi/a/callback_delphi.htm

I work with MS-OFFICE every day and i hate bars, buttons, dialogs, general interface dont suport bitmap fonts and others limitations with .net platform loser(sorry MS-Fans).

Other suite option is OpenOffice:

http://www.openoffice.org/ (nice interface-compatible with MS-WORD)

or single program text processor:

http://www.abisource.com/tour/ (very nice and compatible with MS-WORD)

I work in one program for change icon in left title bar in all windows in desktop area without reshacker using Delphi(Hard code api).
The MS desktop api documention is bad.
Try the google for search source codes, examples for used.

I know that it is not the solution but already it is a way.
I wait to have helped it.

@gorcq:

office apps use a system integrity checks when the apps load. the splash screens are built into dlls in the officex directory. other office dialogs are built into the windows shell dialogs (the comctrl dialogs in the system32 folder). but those dialogs can't be resedited. again, because windows uses system integrity checks to determine if the dlls are modified in any way.

i found out that doing reshack on any of the comctrl / comdlg changes the way the dlls execute memory request calls. in one of my r&ds, i changed comdlg32.dll to get a bigger dialog screen space (for my 19" tft) but notepad, wordpad, reshack &c all hung up after i did a ctrl-o (the open dialog).

i guess office apps are better left behind! dunno, someday, some crazy guy might come up with some crazy lil thing called microsoft total bashing.
