Default dictionary

[Lynn W]

I use Outlook at work and I have set the default dictionary to English
UK but invariably it reverts to English USA and I have to manually make
it UK again. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong and what I need to
do to make it stay as UK. The default editor is Word and I wonder if
that is the problem as in there is a setting for Default Language but
that seems to still hold USA instead of UK so I think this is where my
problem lies. I don't have the same problem on my laptop at home, the
default for Word stays as UK but I use OE for email.

What version of Outlook?

If you go to Start | Programs | Microsoft Office | Office Tools | Language
Settings can you change it there and have it stick?

Thank you that seems to have sorted it. I was changing the information
actually in Outlook through Options, didn't know about the route you
suggested.
