how do I change spellcheck default language to English U.K.
I have tried to change the default language in spellcheck from English U.S.
to English U.K. but without much success. The 'help' menu does not even incorporate a section on such a change. The U.S. default mucks up my writing and grammar and if I could change it life could be made easier. I'm using Microsoft Word in XP Standard for Students |

You should be able to go to Tools--Language--Set language. Choose the
desired language and make sure "do not proof" is NOT checked, and then hit the DEFAULT button. ******************* ~Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com www.MyExpertsOnline.com "Emmm" wrote in message ...

Hi Emmm
You need to set the language correctly in Windows, in Office and in Word. For full details see http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister/LangFmt.htm Hope this helps. Shauna Kelly.
