I have lost the language display on the status bar - any
idea how to get it back as I work with US and UK English?

Thanks Jim

What version of Word are you using?

Have you checked under Start/Programs/Microsoft Office/Microsoft
Office Tools/Microsoft Office 2003 Language Settings and verified you
have more than one language available?

If you only have one language enabled then you will not see the
language indicator.

Yes - I have English (UK) and English (US) and until
recently I could see which one was applied to each
paragraph/word in WORD 2003. I have checked the help file
and Language is upposed to display on the Status Bar - but
it is not any longer.

How do I turn it back on?

Thanks

I would first try exiting Word, removing a language, starting Word,
exiting, and then adding it back.

I've never had more than English (United States) enabled, but I used to see
the language in the Systray. In Control Panel | Regional Options | Input
Locales, if you click on the Language Bar button, you get a dialog in which
you can check "Show the language bar on the desktop" (I have since cleared
that check box).
