When I get docs to review my spell check comes up in French!
I was emailed a document to proofcheck. However, when I try to run spellcheck
- it comes up in FRENCH! None of my other documents do this - only the one that was emailed to me - and they don't speak French! Any idea how to fix this? I've tried setting the language option to English but it doesn't change the spellcheck. |

Ctrl+A to select the entire document, then go to Tools | Language | Set
Language, choose the correct version of English, and clear the check box for "Detect language automatically." -- Suzanne S.

It took doing it twice, but it seems to work. Maybe because they have
several section breaks all through the document! Thanks. "Suzanne S.
