Word for Mac

I have exactly the same problem for years, and in BOTH Word 2004 and  
Word 2008, both with updates, so that doesn't fix it. It seems if you  
start a document in Russian it's less likely to happen. It is indeed  
annoying when you're editing a long document to have to switch into  
Russian every time, but that seems to be the case. (I'm using OS  
10.4, maybe it's solved in newer versions)

You don't have to go back to the flag, though, as someone pointed out  
in the earlier thread: you can set the mac to toggle between the last  
two keyboards by using apple-spacebar.
