Stefan - sorry - previous reply sent itself on tab button - stupid.....

Your note helpful, thanks

But

1 Why doesn't template automatically set comment/balloon text language to
be the same as document langauge? Is there a setting to make it do that?

2 When I reset the ballon text, I found that it affected some comments,
not others - so why does it see some as balloons and others as comments?

3 When I went to reset both, I found them both to Finnish (!). I did work
on a diocument a couple of weeks ago by a Finnish author - so how did the
languages set themsleves to Finnish then (I didn't set them), and how have
they retained that setting, despite the fact that I have worked on about 5
other documents since, in US and Englsih English, as well as by Korean and
Italian authors?

Surely, once you set the language for a document it should set it for all
these subsidiary functions as well - if it's as clever as it says it is!

best

I edit academic papers, and make a lot of use of Comments.

Sometimes Word spell-checks text in comment boxes, sometimes not - the
same
in the review pane

The same is true of Languange setting - usually it does not affect comment
boxes, which still format text according to an original langauge, not to
the
one I want to use.

Why is this?
What can I do to fix these problems?
