I have a web page that is in Spanish and I have cut and
paste the document to Word.  I need to know how to change
it to English since the web site does not give the option
to change the lanuage.

Thank you in advance for any feedback.

Are you saying that you need to change the language setting so that it
correctly reflects the language? If so, then select everything (Ctrl+A) and
choose Tools - Language - Set Language, etc.

If you're saying that you want to translate the document into English, Word
cannot do that. There are some web sites that can do a cursory translation
(e.g., Google has such a feature), but the translations are not wonderful,
and the resulting phrasing is usually rather stilted.
