All,
Somehow, somewhere, my language in MS-Word got changed from US-English to French. When I check the language options, over ten are selected. I cannot disable then and all my docs get edited in french even though I set the default to US-english.
Really pissed about this, cause every word I type is miss-spelled, cause english does tranlate to french.
Help please

Have you unchecked the Detect language automatically check box or removing the languages checked? You could also try removing the normal.dot or custom.dic files.

Jen,
The "Detect language automatically" box is grayed and I can not make any changes as in "unselect" of any checked languages.
