I don't want to pretend I am from the UK in order to get "cheque" spelled correctly. Is there any way to fix the Canadian localization so that is displayed properly?

See http://www3.telus.net/linguisticsissues/BritishCanadianAmerican.htm for a list of different spellings.

    Johann,
    I'm so sorry that we did not answer your inquiry earlier. Somehow it fell through the cracks and I apologize.
    Regarding your inquiry, you can change Check to Cheque (and other similar changes) by selecting the English (UK) locale in the General tab of the Preferences window.

    Please let me know if I can help you with anything else and sorry again for the late response,
    Jon Hoover, Moneydance Support

    I have already selected "English (Canada)" because I want the Canadian localization rather than the UK localization. I am simply asking for a correct Canadian localization.

    To be clear: The Canadian localization has "cheque" spelled incorrectly. If the MD crew doesn't want to fix it, so be it, but it seems silly to have a Canadian localization for a finance software product without having "cheque" spelled correctly - what other localizations are necessary?
