Changing spellchecker

[Argyll]

2nd post here guys.

How do I change my spell checker in word so it permanently stays at the uk setting? I have to change mine from the US setting every time I use it and it's very annoying.

Tools > Language > Set Language

Click UK
Click Default
Click OK/Yes

no more stupid normaliZed bollox

Yes mate thanks but I've already done that but for some reason it keeps jumping back to US.

Have I done something wrong mate when you said nomalized bollox? I'm just new

Sounds to me like the Regional Settings in Windows are all to cock.

Control Panel > Regional & Language Options....check the folowing for a TRUE UK setup

Regional Options Tab
Standards & Formats = English (United Kingdom)
Location = United Kingdom

Languages Tab
Click Details
Default Input Language = English (United Kingdom)
Highlight everything else and remove it

Advanced Tab
Language for non unicode programs = English (United Kingdom)


The above is the PROPER way to set Windows NT (inc 2000 & XP) up for British use, but a hell of a lot of people seem to struggle to grasp this concept.

Ah your a genius mate. It was set to english us in the advance tab. Thanks very much for your help. How do I give karma?
