Default Help: How to Configure Word So That It Only Recognizes English

Hi:

I had added some French names to my CV which is a long document in Word 2007
with all updates installed. It keeps recognizing ENGLISH words as French
and flagging them as mispelled. I removed French as a language in the Word
options. I right click on the word and set the language to English so that
when I right click again it shows the word as English. However, when I
right click to see the recommend spelling, the French spelling still appears
and the English word is flagged as mispelled.

I want to prevent this from happening ever again in any document and remove
any French recognition from my existing document, but it seems to be a
recurring problem in Word 2007.

Please help, because I find this to be a rather irritating probleme.

Thanks in advance,

Pete
