I have my Regional and Language options setup in XP for English (Australian),
but whenever I run spell check in MS Work it always defaults to English (US).
Is there any way to change this in MS Word, so that it defaults to English
(Australian). I have searched the options within MS Word, but cannot find
the appropriate area to change.
