English template has French parts - How do I make them go away?

G

Guest

I have a template that has a date on the cover sheet. The entire template and
the default language for Office on my machine is in English. However,
whenever I try to type in the date, I get a message about installing French
options. I have set the default language on the document template to English
to no avail.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Ctrl+A to Select All in the template, then use Tools | Language | Set
Language to apply the correct language (and make sure language auto
detection is disabled). See also
