The Ctrl+A that was mentioned as the first step does that same as your step

They forgot to tell you a critical step (#1):

1. Select all the text in the document

2. Choose Tools - Language - Set Language

3. Uncheck the "Do not check spelling or grammer" box

4. Select OK

Asked for help once before; tried suggested advice of "Ctrl A |Tools |
Language | Set Language, and cleared check box for 'do not check spelling
&
grammar'," which gave me same results of "spellcheck completed except for
text marked 'do not check'." It has happened again on another document,
both
of which are purely text, no graphics or commands of any kind.
