Default How do you stop word from defaulting to US bloody English? Ple

I'll take that as a clue.

Hi all,
Suzanne and Jezebel, thank you (I mean it) for your succinct
answers. Greg,
are you the USA, don't take things so personally.

Jezebel,

You are no fun. I would have left him groping for a while ;-)

Calm down. Obscene though US imperialism might be, it doesn't
actually extend its nefarious tentacles this far.

Set the language for your computer as a whole: go to Regional and
Language settings on the Control Panel and change the language
from US English to something civilized.

Set the langauge for Word: set the language for normal style to
English (Australian). Set other styles if necessary, although
most styles ulitmately inherit from Normal, so you probably
won't need to. Set the language for the document: select the
lot, then use Tools
Language.

Is there a simple way of keeping English (Australian) as the
default spell checker. I change it for one word and it just
keeps going back to the US version. What is it with the US
can't they accept anything else???
