Word keeps changing the default language of docs
in 'spanish', even when I set all the defaults
in 'dutch'(tools-language-set language). I save the
document and at re-opening it is still spanish!
I even can't find a solution in office proofing tools.
Can anyone help me on this? Thanks
 
Hi Peter

You don't say what version of Word, but it sounds like Word 2002's stupid
automatic language detection. Try Tools > Language > Set language and
uncheck 'Detect language autoamtically'.

Another possibility is that the language has been set incorrectly in Normal
or one of your other styles.
 
Hi Peter,

Search on Google.com:
Newsgroup: word.spelling.grammar
Search term: FAQ

This explains how language formatting is controlled in
Word.
