Setting Thesuarus Language to English Canadian
I am using Windows XP and Word 2003. I want to use the Canadian dictionary
and thesaurus. I have changed the language that defines default behaviour in Microsoft Office applications to English Canada and have set the default for the Normal template for new documents to be set to English (Canada) in Word. However, when I open the Thesaurus it comes up with English (UK). Is there not a Thesaurus for English (Canada)? If there is, how do I change this setting? -- Sued |

Hi Sue
Follow Cindy Meister's instructions at http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister/LangFmt.htm. You have to get the Windows, Office and Word languages lined up so that they are all using Canadian English. Hope this helps. Shauna Kelly.

Shauna:
Thank you for the information. I had already set up the machine as Cindy Meister has instructed and my Thesaurus still is set to English (U.K.). Perhaps there is no English (Canada) Thesaurus is available. Does anyone know this??
