Hi kwongtk,
I suspect that the default language of your Office programs is CH. If you
have enabled different languages to work with your keyboard (see
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/help/HP100295481033.aspx), then you can use
the Language Bar on the Taskbar to change the language of the text as you
type.
But if you want to use a single language when you create documents, I
suggest making sure that the default input language used when creating
documents (including Access tables, Excel spreadsheets, etc.) is set in the
Control Panel.
To set the default input langauge in Windows Vista:
1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
2. Under Clock, Language, and Region, click Change keyboards or other input
methods.
Note In Classic view, double-click Regional and Language Options, and
then click the Keyboards and Languages tab.
3. On the Keyboards and Languages tab, click Change keyboards. This displays
the Text Services and Input Languages dialog box.
4. Under Default input language, click the language you want to use as the
default language, and then go to Step 10.
If the language you want to use as the default input language is not listed,
do Steps 5 through 9.
Note The default language you click is applied to all programs on your
computer that use this setting, including programs from other companies.
5. Under Installed services, click Add.
6. Expand the language that you want to use as the default input language,
and then expand Keyboard.
7. Select the check box for the keyboard that you want to use, and then
click OK. The language is added to the Default input language list.
8. Under Default input language, click the language you want to use as the
default language.
9. To close the Text Services and Input Languages dialog box, click OK.
10. Turn on the language-specific options for the default language in
Microsoft Office by doing the following:
a. Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Microsoft Office, point to
Microsoft Office Tools, and then click Microsoft Office 2007 Language
Settings. This displays the Microsoft Office Language Settings 2007 dialog
box.
b. Click the Editing Languages tab.
c. In the Primary editing language list, click the primary language in which
you plan to work.
To set the default input language in XP, see:

I hope this helps.
