Is there a way to completely remove the U.S. "English" dictionary from
Microsoft Office products?

Although I keep setting the default language to English (Australia) or
English (Britian), it regularly reverts to English (U.S.) all by itself.
This becomes really annoying when Word automatically converts correctly
spelt words to their Americanised versions.

Since we have no reason to use American spellings, I would rather just
remove this dictionary from our computers entirely (or maybe - thinking
laterally - overwrite it with one of the other dictionaries), but I'd be
happy to disable it somehow. Any help appreciated.

Cheers,
Mark
