Remove korean character on date formatting

[PATSYS]

Hi guys,

I took over this laptop from a colleague and for some reason, everytime I enter a date, its default formatting is something like

09월 01일

I looked up the character and it appears it is Korean.

I went to HOME->FORMAT->FORMAT CELLS->NUMBER->CUSTOM and there are a number of korean format type. I deleted them but once I go back to typing dates in a worksheet, the default format is still in Korean. I checked back under FORMAT CELLS->NUMBER->CUSTOM and all of the korean formatting are there again.

Any idea on how to just restore this Excel?

Thanks

Hi all,

I managed to solve the problem - all I needed to do was to go to FILE->OPTIONS->LANGUAGE

and under the Choose Editing Language, I removed Korean.

The Korean was not enabled all along but apparently this was not sufficient. It has to be removed totally.
