Hi Everyone,
I to have the same problem. When I upgraded to MS2007 I lost my spellcheck
and dictionary. The only message I received (vista OS) was that I required a
third party spellcheck program. I emailed MSN Customer support on February
10, 2008. This was their response:
"When you upgrade earlier versions of Office to the 2007 MOS, the old
spell-checking files are removed for some languages. These files are replaced
with newer versions included in the 2007 MOS and they are currently
incompatible with the MSN software."
"Rest assured that the product group is aware of the situation and is taking
steps to address this in the next clent release. However, there is no
estimated time frame for this new release." Etc., etc................
They told me to come to this forum for advice.

I'm having a similar problem. My spell check doesn't work in any of my
Office programs. In my current word document, I checked to see if the "Do
not check spelling or grammar" box was checked and it was not. I have set it
so that the language is not automatically detected (it is set to English),
and I have checked the box that says "Check spelling as you type". None of
these things worked. What else can I try?

It is probably formatted as "Do not check spelling or grammar." The article
at http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/MasterSpellCheck.htm, though not
written for Word 2007, is generally applicable.

When I type, a word is not recognized as being misspelled. No red
underline
and no recognition when i try and spell check with f7 or the regular spell
check button in word. My spell check works fine in other programs like
onenote. Any ideas?

Hi Ryan,
Not much information to go on. Can you be more specific on the issues
you're having?

Is there going to be an Office update that fixes the problems with the
spell
check in Word 2007?
