How to set language in PPT 2007?

[Guurt]

Hello All, how should one determine language in PPT 2007? (it seems tot
switch between Dutch / English depending on where the template slide is
clicked...??..)

So, how to set language for the whole document?

Thanx,
Guurt

You can use Review| Language, but that won't change existing objects that
have been set to a different language, which PPT picks up from your Windows
Regional Settings as well as the keyboard language settings.

Anyway, this code worked in previous versions -- I don't know if it will
work in PPT 2007 or not. http://support.microsoft.com/?id=245468

Hi Guurt

You might find the code Echo suggests does what you need if your
presentations are fairly simple but it misses many things and won't affect
text added after it's run. For example diagrams and tables are not changed
nor is grouped text. If you need an addin to do this and set the language for
all NEW text you can email me and I'll send you a free fully functional
trial of one of our addins which can change the current spellcheck language
to any other.
