Try selecting the text first.(CTRL A should do it)
The language is an attribute of the style not the document.

Subject: [austechwriter] Setting languages in Word 2000


Hi all,
Sorry if this is a basic question but I can't get my spell check to =
work.  I
created a Word document using a template that uses English (Australia)
language.  I then saved a copy of the document, changed the format to =
Letter
and want to apply English (USA) spelling.  I go to the menu bar and =
select
Tools>Set Language>English USA and but it still continues to spell check
using the Australian spelling.  I have tried applying the new language
setting with the entire document highlighted.  Also does not work!
Any ideas anyone please!
