    Dim objViews As Outlook.Views
    Dim objView As Outlook.View

    Set olApp = New Outlook.Application
    Set objViews = _
        olApp.GetNamespace("MAPI").GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox).Views
    'Iterate through each view in the collection.
    For Each objView In objViews
        Debug.Print objView.Name
        'If view is of type olTableVIew then set language.
        If objView.ViewType = olTableView And objView.Standard = False Then
            objView.Language = "EN-US"
        End If
    Next objView
