US Dictionary and spell checker
Hello,
I have US clients that are using word 2007 SP2 on XP SP3 and they are getting spell check corrections on color "Colour", favorites "favourites", center "centre". The spell checker is suggesting the Canadian way to spell the word - it underlines it in that red waving line and when you right click it suggests it. I have them all set at US language as a standard in Word Options and I have removed Canadian English from the list. I also checked the dictionary settings and have added US English and it is still doing it. What am I doing wrong. Please and thanks |
