Default Spellchecker not checking documents??

Tools options spelling & grammar - check 'check spelling as you type'
and uncheck 'hide spelling errors'

My parents recently purchased a new PC with Word 2003. I have been
trying for ages to work out why the spellchecker is not working
wondered if someone could help.

I have checked all the usual settings and they are all ok - they are
exactly the same as on my PC. However no matter what you spell or
how the spellchecker reports no errors. I have checked the thesaurus
and that is working ok. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall Word
to no avail.

Thing is if you create a document on their PC and transfer it to any
other machine the spelling will not work for that document ont he
other machine either???

I have never seen this before and I am lost as to what to try next.
