Default Why are my tables using Eng US and not my set language Eng N

I'm glad you were able to fix this. Thank you for the feedback.

THanks, I ahve it sorted now. I realised from what you were saying taht I
needed to work out were the corruption of the table grid had started (all
tables I inserted had US english, no matter what style I sued).

As far as I have been able to work out, one style I created to use in
tables
defaulted to US english, and from then all table grids came up as US
English.
I did as you suggested, renamed the normal template, so a fresh template
was
opened.

The tables I inserted in my new normal tempalte stayed NZ english, and
when
I created the new styles I checked each one was still saying NZ english
before saving them as new styles. One style did default to US english, but
I
changed it before it was saved, and the tables have remained NZ english.
Whew.
thanks for the help

Correction: If the table styles are built-in, copy the corresponding,
functioning, styles from a different document or template. If the table
styles are custom, try recreating them in a fresh document, and then copy
them to the problem document.

As long as you press Enter after each command, it should work to type
them
all in the same window (one after the other).

And, yes, if you get the macro to work in a document, you can run it
for
any template. Note, however, that if the Normal template is affected,
you
may find it easier to close Word, rename the template and then restart
Word, which creates a fresh copy of normal.dotm.

If you can't get the macro to work, try copying the problem table
styles
from another document, where the settings are correct.

I have done as you suggested, but nothing has changed.
I haven't used VB before, do I need a seperate intermediate screen for
each
style that is covered, or can I enter after each statement, with all
on
the
same screen?
Other than entering is there anything else I need to do to apply it to
the
document?
If I can ge this to work for the current document, can I then open
normal
and apply the same instructions to it and fix all future documents?
And what then happends later on when other users use these templates
and
use
a diferent style in the table grid?

thanks

I have my regional language set at English NZ,a dn my normal.dotm is
all
working with this language, except my two table formats, which are
using
English US.

I have checked clearing the fonts, and using normal, but any text
within
the
table grid changes to English US.

How do I make this go away?
