Hello Antonio,
It appears that the text you are inserting has another language assigned to
it.
This happens to me -- my variant of English is Australian English, but most
people who supply me with text have not changed it from US English.
You can select all your text by typing Command-a (or just the new text that
isn't in Dutch) and choosing Tools menu -> Language -> scroll to Dutch ->
OK.
I prepared a macro and assigned a keystroke combination so that I don't have
to go to the menu:
Sub ApplyEnglishAust()
'
' ApplyEnglishAust Macro
' Macro recorded 2 April 2003 by Huggan
'
Selection.LanguageID = wdEnglishAUS
End Sub
Try "wdDutch" and maybe it will work!

* A suggestion: If you post a question, keep re-visiting the newsgroup for
several days after the first response comes in. Sometimes it takes a few
responses before the best or complete solution is proposed; sometimes you'll
be asked for further information so that a better answer can be provided.
Good tips about getting the best out of posting are at
http://word.mvps.org/FindHelp/Posting.htm
* Know the answer, even a partial one, to a question you see on this
newsgroup? Jump in and answer it -- there's no monopoly on answering here,
and we're all volunteers!
* Before posting a question about a topic, search Google Groups
(http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search?q=group:*mac.office.word) --
it may have been comprehensively answered already.
* Please post all comments or follow-on questions to the newsgroup for the
benefit of others who may be interested. If you need to send an e-mail to me
directly (although that would be exceptional), remove the uppercase letters
from my address above. Please note that e-mails with an attachment will be
automatically rejected.
* If anyone is still reading down this far, here's a question: is it time
for you to back up your Normal template and all your Word settings files?
(This should be on a medium other than the internal hard drive and, if you
also want to protect against theft and fire, stored in a different
building.)
