Default how do I keep UK English as the default for Word spellcheck?

Tools, Language, Set Language
Start, Program, Microsoft Office, Microsoft Office Tools, Microsoft Office
2003 Language Settings

It is important to note:

Language is assigned to text and therefore, text which comes from other
sources whereby the dictionary has not been set as UK may change to US or
another language when opened.

Hope this helps?

THe spell check keeps returning to US English and I am working in the UK and
need it to stick to UK English. I have changed the language default through
Office settings, but time after time, when I am writing a document, I find
that it changes organisation to organization and when I go into spell check
to change this, it keeps changing back to US English in front of my very
eyes. It's drivig me mad. please help!
