I am using Outlook 2007 and for some reason the spelling check is underlining words because I am not using the American spelling. This is a very recent issue and I have never had a problem before, so what has changed? If I go into spelling at the far right of the "Message" ribbon the box says "Spelling and Grammar: English (United States)". How do I change this back to English (United Kingdom) please?

Many thanks for that. It looks as though Word and Outlook are already set up to spell check using the UK dictionary. It may be that the problem is that I am replying to an email from Canada and the original email would, no doubt be set to check using the USA dictionary and somehow this applies to my response.
