What problems are you having? We're using Word 2007 on 5 different
computers, and spelling is working fine on all of them.

Spell Check
When I type, a word is not recognized as being misspelled. No red underline
and no recognition when i try and spell check with f7 or the regular spell check button in word. My spell check works fine in other programs like onenote. Any ideas?

Spell Check
I'm having a similar problem. My spell check doesn't work in any of my
Office programs. In my current word document, I checked to see if the "Do not check spelling or grammar" box was checked and it was not. I have set it so that the language is not automatically detected (it is set to English), and I have checked the box that says "Check spelling as you type". None of these things worked. What else can I try? "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: It is probably formatted as "Do not check spelling or grammar."

I'm having some problem with fixing the word 2007 spell check. I have not

Spell Check
I'm also having problems with spell check in Word 2007. It just simply quit
checking the spelling. After a couple of embarrassments from spelling errors in documents sent out, I discovered that spell check would indicate "spell check complete" but it had not checked the document. This is another example of the kinds of problems I've had with Windows Vista (70+ hours resolving problems with one 6 hour online session with a Microsoft technician) and other Windows 2007 products, including OneNote.

Better double check your documents in Word 2007! I discovered that despite
Spell Check indicating it had completed checking my document, it is not checking spelling at all. I even entered spelling errors intentionally and it fails to pick them up...

Spell Check
My spell check worked before a few weeks ago. I called Microsoft and they
told me that they couldnt help me because i did not by the product directly from them. I called HP which was the suggestion from the Microsoft employee and HP couldnt help either. The problem started after the program had been working fine for months. The spell check settings and everything are fine. Any more ideas? Thanks "Suzanne S.

Has this been resolved yet. I cannot live without spell check. It works on my
desktop and not on my laptop. Please help. "Jerry W" wrote: I'm also having problems with spell check in Word 2007. It just simply quit checking the spelling.

Spell Check
I have also printed out the information provided by Suzanne followed it
step-by-step and it is still failing to recognise any misspelt words in any document using the Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007 suite. It will however, pick up any grammar errors e.g. the cat sat on the het. It will pick up the should be The but het will not be picked up and corrected to hat. In the spelling and grammar box that generates it only has a check box for check grammar (which is ticked) but there is no check spelling box like my previous version of Office XP. Also, I believe this only started a couple of weeks ago when I went to change the default language from English (United States) to English (Australia). I was then getting an error message "Cannot find proofing tools for English (Australia). If you have the proofing tools, try installing or re-installing them. Contact your local reseller to obtain Office Proofing tools. For more information, see the Microsoft Office Site." I then changed it back to English (United States) and although the error message goes away it is still not checking the spelling. I'm desperate for fix, so any suggestions will be most welcome although it sounds like a few people are having the same problem. |

Spell Check
Further to my e-mail I have also found another forum on this topic and it was
suggested to check the following: "In some cases in an upgrade installation to Office 2007 from Office 2003, the spellcheck files do not get installed. Look in your "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Proof" folder to see whether the MSSP3EN.LEX and MSSP3ENA.LEX files are present. If not, then reinstall the English proofing tools feature from your Office 2007 CD. " I upgraded from Microsoft XP Professional to Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007. When I go to reinstall these files I get an error 1713. Setup cannot install one of the required products for Microsoft Office Proof (English) 2007. Could this be why I have a spell check missing and how do I go about resolving this issue? |

I have repeated the process again for French and Spanish proofing tools (this
are the other two languages that came with my disk) and then misspelt common French and Spanish and the dictionary is working for these languages. It appears with the error 1713 message- English proofing tools are not been installed at all. What would you suggestions be to fix this? |

Spell Check
Hi,
After reading from the thread, the problem is not quite clear but I assume that your English US speller does not work. I also assume that English speller works fine in other applications. If this is true,your English speller got disabled in Word. This happened because English speller crashed sometimes and there was a message asking if you would like to disable the speller so this crash will not happen and you might accidentally click yes. Here is an easy fix: 1. Click Office icon Word Options Add-Ins 2. At the bottom, select Disabled Items from Manage drop down box Go 3. Msspell6.dll or some speller files display select it and click Enable 4. Exit Word and relaunch Word English speller should work now. Let me know if it does not work. -- -- Thank you, Pensio "Ryan" wrote: My spell check worked before a few weeks ago.

Spell Check
Hi Everyone,
I to have the same problem. When I upgraded to MS2007 I lost my spellcheck and dictionary. The only message I received (vista OS) was that I required a third party spellcheck program. I emailed MSN Customer support on February 10, 2008. This was their response: "When you upgrade earlier versions of Office to the 2007 MOS, the old spell-checking files are removed for some languages. These files are replaced with newer versions included in the 2007 MOS and they are currently incompatible with the MSN software." "Rest assured that the product group is aware of the situation and is taking steps to address this in the next clent release. However, there is no estimated time frame for this new release." Etc., etc................ They told me to come to this forum for advice. Bill "Katy" wrote: I'm having a similar problem. My spell check doesn't work in any of my Office programs.

This worked for me. I was searching for an answer earlier this month as my
Word Spellcheck had stopped working and I had posted a thread around the 12th. Outlook, etc. continued to work but Word had stopped. We have 4 new PC's and mine is the only one that had the problem.

Spell Check
Hi Pensio. I am having the same issue with Word 2003. I've tried following
you path but I get to proofing tools and get "custom dictionaries" with two files. One is labeled as "default" and the other is "1". Both are type REG_SZ. there is no data listing for "default" but "1" is CUSTOM.DIC. What are my options? YOur assistance seems to have been great for a lot of users. I really hope that you can assist me. Also, responses to my email do not work so you can email me direct at . Thanks in advance.

Spell Check
I have followed all the post and other strings as well to solve my problem with spell checker. I have a Student Edition of Office Enterprise '07 and getting pretty frustrateded with this whole thing. Spell check does not work in Outlook or Word, but the Grammer check does. I am looking for more options or ideas, or a patch that would fix this problem. Is there another dictionary that I can download and use insted (instead)? |

I went through the above but wasn't sure what you were talking about when you said reinstalling the disk. I'm having similar problems with spell check and when I did it it worked but only on that one document. Let me know. THanks, |

Spell Check
Hello pensio,
I have a spell checking problem with Word 2007 that I have not seen addressed in this forum. My spell check works fine through most of my document but then it stops working for some paragraphs. I was typing a paper today and all of a sudden in the middle of a paragraph it stopped working. I could enter misspelled words and it would not underline them and when I checked the document with the spell check button it found no misspelled words. As I moved down my document to the next header the spell checking started working again. Please let me know what I can do to correct this. The boxes for not checking spelling are not checked so that is not it. This error with the program could adversly affect my grades in my masters level program and that is unacceptable for me. Please led me a hand and find the cause of this problem. "pensio" wrote: Hi, After reading from the thread, the problem is not quite clear but I assume that your English US speller does not work.

Spell Check
Dear Ryan,
Its not related to update or other things that is written earlier I guess. I used to face the same problem but its solved now. It depends on the language settings in your computer. if you make your default language English, spell check will be done, else, would not. email : for further clarification. Thanks, Regards, Arif "Ryan" wrote: Is there going to be an Office update that fixes the problems with the spell check in Word 2007? |
