At the server, go into Active Directory Users and Computers. Right click the Organizational Unit the users are part of and select Properties. Click on the Group Policy tab. If there is not a group policy already listed, you will need to create a new one. Once created, edit the group policy. Go to User Configuration/Administration Templates/Control Panel. Use the "Show only specified Control Panel applets". Enable this and add the regional settings to it.

Do you have office installed on a network drive or is it installed via a policy?
