Default proofing language
Hi MartinLaplante
Thanks very much for replying and for your blog article. I appreciate it!
I'm not an experienced user, so I think I used the wrong words to describe my problem, and I can't edit the original post unfortunately.
I would like the http://Proofing%20language%20in%20new%20Word%20document to be UK English for *new Microsoft Word* documents created through the online interface of a SharePoint online site.
I have set the language/locale/regional settings in the following places:

Do you happen to know what sharepoint settings the site admin should set to control the default proofing language new word documents?
OK, different problem.
I don't know the right way of doing this, but I'll tell you how I do it. In library settings under Advanced settings, find "Document template"
You can edit the template online, but I tend to edit the template.dotx file on my workstation, change the default proofing language and upload it to the right place on the site.
