Gnnn this is really annoying.

Every time I make a new Word document, or email document in Outlook, I type it and it starts checking based on US English instead of UK English. E.g. if I type "colour" it finds fault and suggests "color". All the defaults I can find etc have been set to UK English, but somehow it keeps doing it in US English!!!

It's Office 2000. Many thanks for any ideas you have.
 
What defaults have you found?
The most obvious one to check is:

Word > Tools > Language > Set language
Make your selection and click default?
