Hey Wenstumped,
I hope this helps -
Docs list settings for your spreadsheets Share Comment Print
Settings in the Documents List page:
The settings changed from your Documents List page enable you to change your display language (among other things).
Changing your display language will affect the language in which Google Docs is presented (the language associated with the menus, buttons, etc.).
The spellchecker will also default to the chosen language. To change your display language setting, click on the gear icon in the upper right of your Documents List, and then click Documents Settings.
Setting related to an individual spreadsheet:
Changing the locale or timezone setting on one spreadsheet will only affect the default settings (date, time, currency, etc.) for that specific spreadsheet.
This change will be effected for all of the viewers and collaborators across the entire spreadsheet.
To change the locale of a specific spreadsheet, follow these steps:
Open the spreadsheet you're working in.
Click File > Spreadsheet settings.
In the window that appears, you can change your time zone and locale.
When you're done, make sure to click Save settings.
The changes will now be applied across the entire spreadsheet. Viewers, regardless of where they're located geographically, can't change these preferences.
Regards
ND
