Default undo "skip text during a spelling and grammar check"?

Thank you so much. I thought I tried this, but must not have used the
correct sequence of tasks. Anyhow, I just followed your instructions and IT
WORKED! This discussion group is so helpful. Thanks again!

I just found the answer to my question under a search. You highlight your
entire document by using CTRL + A, the go to tools | Language | set language
| uncheck the box "do not check spelling or grammar and click on default
button and OK. It now works and hopefully will work for every new document I
create.

What a great forum for finding answers! I'm impressed!

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