Under International on the Module General tab in the Options dialog box (Tools menu), you'll see the Current Settings and Default Settings option buttons. If you click Current Settings, the Language/Country and associated settings for the active workbook will be displayed. If you click Default Settings, the default settings for each new workbook you create will be displayed. For example, if you usually work in the English/United States locale and you receive a French/France application, clicking Current Settings displays locale information about the application, but the default settings for the rest of your work are still the English/United States settings.
