outlook2000 peculiar localization options

I am currently using outlook2000 with localization to set to default to
another language than "English", however, when I access outlook2000's
"Contact"'s rollerdex index button comes up with non-english character. It's
pain when all my contact's information is entered in English. IS there's
anyway I can force outlook2000 thinks that it's running on windows 2000 pro
with English language setting?

Thanks

Paul
