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? |

Try the following macro:
ActiveDocument.Styles("StyleNameHere").LanguageID = wdEnglishNewZealand To run the macro, you can press Alt+F11; this displays the Visual Basic Editor. In the Immediate window (Ctrl+G), type the code above and press Enter. Repeat this for the other problem table style too. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "MicehlleLeo NZ" wrote in message ...

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 MichelleLeo NZ "MicehlleLeo NZ" wrote: 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.

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. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "MicehlleLeo NZ" wrote in message ...

If you can't get the macro to work, try copying the problem table styles
from another document, where the settings are correct. 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. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Stefan Blom" wrote in message ...

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.
