    Ok so word is set to have its language as English (U.K) and it seems to be fine and everything but whenever I write something it uses the U.S. proofing on the spell checker...like if I write organisation it will say no no no its spelt organization which obviously I don't want it to do...has anyone encountered this problem before or have any idea's what I could do?
    Thanks

    Look into Word's Autocorrect options.

    From there, you can disable autocorrecting as you type, so it doesn't change the words as you type or make it replace organization with organisation.
