I had a similar problem today. I developed a form in Word and after
unlocking the form, the spellchecker will not check any of the text form
field boxes. I get the following message "Text marked with "Do not check
spelling or grammar" was skipped." I have no idea how to bypass this. I
tried the recheck document and that did not work either. This has been
frustrating me for 6 years now; I sure hope there is an answer to the

problem.

I mistakenly blocked some text and set the "skip text during a spelling

grammar check". How do I undo this? I am unaware of which text I
blocked. If I go to Tools, Language, Set Language and take the check

out of
the "do not check.." box and then save, it still will not correct the
spelling areas that were in the "blocked area". There are misspelled

words,
but it skips them and say spellcheck is complete.
