Changing the default spelling language for Word 2007

[svenM]

Hello,

Is it possible to change the default office (word) spelling language from
code?
Preferably from c#,
I have not found the location where word stores this.

Kind regards,

Sven Maes

The *default* language is determined by Windows Regional settings.
The *current* language is a formatting parameter of the particular text and
set as part of the current style definition. Language settings are
transportable between documents.

Thanks for your reply,
so I can't set a value somewhere,
and have that as a default when word opens a new document?

You can ghange the language associated with the Normal style int he
Normal.dot (or Normal.dotx) file.

But if a user uses his/her own template to create a document, then whatever
you store in the Normal template will be ignored. The Normal template will be
used whenever a standard document is created form Word (i.e. no other
template is used).

Also,a user can easily reset the setting in Normal.dotx to whatever language
he/she chooses. Unless yopur code quick in every time... which might annoy
users...

Thanks,
will try this,
i'm working now with office automation,
but it keeps giving various problems.

No the purpose of the program is to allow the user to set all language
related settings on one place, so it is changed only when the user selects it.
