The document language is based on the language defined in Microsoft Office Language Settings (on the Start menu, select All Programs, and then select Microsoft Office Tools).
If you want to change the language for a document, instead of editing this element directly, it is best to change this value in the Properties dialog box (File menu) or by using Automation, using the Language property of the Document object.
