I'm glad I could help--and thank you for the feedback.
For more on language settings in Word, see this article (not specifically
targeted at Word 2007, though):

You are indeed learned, oh great one.
I changed it back from US International to US, and hey presto.
I had been trying to overcome language defaulting to US in Word, but that
was actually more to do with styles.
Thank you.

When I type ' or ", the symbol doesn't appear until I type something

If I type " and then move to another place in the sentence and hit
another
key, the " appears where I've moved to.
" o turns into ö / ' a = á
Typing " [space] doesn't give the space, only the symbol.
Auto-correct doesn't have any entries starting with ' or ". I've
disabled
smart quotes, but it still happens with plain quotes.
This happens in (Office 12 2007) Word, Excel, Outlook email messages
and
Firefox.
