What version of Word... and what do you mean by "Dictionary"? The English
version of Word 2003 (2002, too, I think, but I'm not positive) comes with
proofing tools (spelling checker, thesaurus and grammar checker) for Spanish
& French. It's just a matter of making sure they're installed in the Setup
(use Start - Settings - Control Panel - Add/Remove Programs... to see), and
setting the language of the document accordingly. I've forgotten what comes
with earlier versions of Word.

If you mean an actual dictionary (i.e., one that tells you how to
pronounce/use words, and defines them), I don't have a clue.

If you have the English version of Office 2000 or above, you already have
proofing tools for French and Spanish in addition to English. If you have an
earlier version, the Microsoft Proofing Tools package is no longer available
from Microsoft but may be available online (from retailers or auction
sites).
