In my new laptop I am using Microsoft Word 2003 SP3 running on Microsoft Windows XP in English.
Everything appears in English, and my default language in MS Word is English, which is fine since I write in this language. However, when I add a table, figure or equation to my documents, and create a Caption for it, instead of the usual "Figure", "Table", "Equation" words, I get the Spanish equivalents: "Ilustración", "Tabla", "Ecuación".
I have looked around and can't find a way to fix this. Any Help will be appreciated.

Here are two options depending on your situation:
Situation 1: Your copy of Office was installed from a Spanish language based install media.
You will be able to set the default language to English, but core functions will use the native language of the installation media.
The only fix is to uninstall the Spanish version, and install from an English-based install media.

Situation 2: Everything seems to be English, but occasionally foreign languages appear.
In this situation, here are repair instructions for Office 2002:
