Document (in english) causes word to use french dictionary
Mike "Degriz" Benson 17.08.2006 09:06:02
Hello everyone, have an odd problem with office 2003, one document (and its
the only one) I open causes word to use the french dictionary instead of
english, have even gone as far as to copy and paste the text into a new doc
and it still does it...Any ideas anyone?

Do you have automatic language detection turned on? If so, try turning it
off. Also, language information seems to be very deeply embedded in (some)
documents. To strip it out completely, you may have to copy and paste into a
program like Notepad and then copy and paste that back into a new Word
document.
