I am having trouble with word spellchecking documents. I have selected
English in Keyboard, regions etc but when checking documents wrod switches
between US and English with no obvious reason - can anyone offer assistance.
I want to retain spell checking in English

I believe that I had this same problem a while back, possibly worst as I
would get French (France) as well as English (US), very confusing.
Changing the settings within Control Panel did not stop the problem.

Eventually the problem was solved by some investiagtion by the company IT
department, who worked with the Registry codes for languages and did
something to stop Word fluctuating between English (UK) and English (US).
English (UK) code is 2057 (LCID Dec) please check on

One little check you could do, simple I know but check that all your styles
in your templates are English (UK).

I hope this helps you down the right path to a solution. Apologies for no
definitive answer.
All the best
