Default Spell check does not work in Word 2007?

That's what I thought too and I found another thread with the same
information so I suspect you're right. :-)

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email can not be acknowledged.

Hi Beth,

As a guess, from the other times I've seen a similar case of this
reported, the registry change that fixed it in those cases was to
locate registry key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Proofing
Tools\1.0\Override\en-US

and check the list of DLL and LEX entries to see if they're pointing to
real or nonexistant files.

If non existant (probably a pair)
Rename these to oldDLL and oldLEX (although I suspect that exporting then
zapping that key then running a diagnostic would also
work).

But, just a guess

Thanks so much for passing along the resolution - what you encountered is
indeed odd!

btw, did they happen to give you a support number? If so, would you mind
emailing it to me (I wouldn't post it in the newsgroup). I can ask someone
from Microsoft to look it up and supply the exact steps they used to
correct
the issue. It would be nice to have for future reference.
