Hi All,

Got a little problem that we have noticed. We get this at random times through our organisation

When a user sends an e-mail and another user goes to reply the spell check will try and check in US not UK. It also automatically changes the spelling for example Organise becomes Organize. This does not happen all the time and i can assure you all the regional and language options are set to UK not US.

I have tried to replicate this on virtual PCs but am getting nowhere

Anybody out there that could shed some light on this.

Hi Craig

MS Office, does not take all of it's regional settings from the PC. On the Start Menu, you will see Office Tools, which links to a menu filled with little applets rarely used. I can't remember the exact name of the link, but it will be obvious which one should help.

Regards, David

The menu names are;

> Microsoft Office Tools > Microsoft Office (ver) Language settings

Thanks Dave,

I will give that a go.

Do you know what Registry key that would be?, so I might be able to role out a reg file to fix PCs in our orgainisation.
