In Tools/Language/Set language look at the "Detect language automatically"
setting. Is it on? If yes, turn it off and see if that helps.

Hello again, Cindy - no, I'm afraid that doesn't work - I have had that
setting off for some tim e. I guess I'll just have to live with it as part of
the consequence of being an Englishman using a PC bought in Spain!
Thanks again for your help...

See:

Get control of language formatting in Word
http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister/LangFmt.htm

Pay special attention to the final section on fixes for existing
documents.
