Old document is not recognized w/spell check, auto correct, etc.
I have a document that I use a great deal and have even re-created it,
difficult as it was, as it has a lot of names and addresses. Spell check, auto correct doesn't work any longer, i.e., misspelling Phoenix as Phenix, is not picked up, highlighted, etc. Please advise -- HW |

If it's sufficiently old, it may have "Hide spelling errors in this
document" enabled on the Spelling & Grammar tab of Tools | Options. This is the default for documents created in versions before "Check spelling as you type" was introduced. If this is not the problem, press Ctrl+A to select the entire document, then go to Tools | Language | Set Language and make sure that the correct language is selected and that "Do not check spelling or grammar" is not checked. -- Suzanne S.
