Default Spell Check not working in a table (Word 2007)

Please help. Spell check is not working within a table. I've check the
language settings and 'Do not check spell check' is not check.

Is there anything else I can do?

Default Spell Check not working in a table (Word 2007)

Does spell check work in the remainder of the document? Is the
table in a floating text box?

Spell check is not working in the rest of the document. No this isn't in a
floating text box. It's in the standard table.

1. Verify settings in Word 2007:
a. Open a document that has this problem. Press Ctrl+A to select
all of the text.
b. Click on Review tab | Proofing: Set Language | choose your
language | uncheck the "Detect language automatically" and "Do
not check spelling or grammar" boxes | Default | OK.
c. Click on Office Button | Word Options | Proofing | check the
"Check spelling as you type" and "Check grammar with spelling"
boxes | uncheck the "Hide spelling errors in this document only"
and "Hide grammar errors in this document only" boxes | OK.

2. If the previous suggestion doesn't help, then in Word 2007
click on Office Button | Word Options | Add-Ins | Manage:
Disabled Items. If you see any disabled items that relate to
spelling, try enabling them.

3. If the previous two suggestions don't help, then:
a. Close Word.
b. Start regedit. In your Windows registry, if the key
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Proofing
Tools\1.0\Override" exists, delete it.
c. Restart your computer.

Thank you so much!

When I selected all and went to Set Language you could tell somewhere in the
document it was set to 'Do not check spelling or grammar'.

If "Check spelling as you type" is not working for checking the misspelled words on table then you need to follow the steps mentioned below to make it do so:

1. Firstly you need to open your document and select the whole text by pressing on Ctrl + A.
2. Then you need to Go to the Review-then select Proofing- Then set the Language (Word 2007).
3. Then you need to Go to Review- then Language- Then Set Proofing Language (Word 2010).
4. Then you need to Uncheck the 'Do not check spelling or Grammar' option.
5. Then you need to Click Ok and again check your document.

If still the spell checker is working or not work then there can be many reasons that can lead to this problem such as restrictions of add-ins or due corruption with the word files.
