I have a user here at work who received a word template in Spanish and when
he goes to copy information from it to creat a new document everything is in
Spanish instead of English. How can we get it to where the original template
and any copying of the template is in English?

You can change the language of the file, for example by changing the language
of the style(s) applied to text, via the Modify Style dialog box.

To open the Modify Style dialog box:

- Click Format | Styles and Formatting. In the Styles and Formatting pane,
right-click the style name and choose Modify from the context menu. For more,
see http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/styl...ifyAStyle.html. (Word 2003)

- Press Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S to display the Styles pane. Click the Manage Styles
button. In the dialog box, click the Edit tab. Locate the style name, select
it and click the Modify button. (Word 2007)

If modifying the style(s) does not work, you can apply the correct language
directly to text, via the Language dialog box.

To open the Language dialog box:

- Click Tools | Language | Set Language. (Word 2003)

- Click Review tab | Set Language. (Word 2007)
