Office Language Pack- Grammar proofing inadequate
Hi there
I have just brought a language pack add on for German proofing, however I'm quite disappointed as it doesn't pick up half of what it should do. The spelling seems to be ok, but slightly basic and the grammar correction is non-existent. Does anyone know if there is some way to rectify this/ or what the limitations of this pack are supposed to be? Has anyone else encountered similar problems? As it stands I still have to check everything manually anyway and so am very disappointed! -- Gemma |

As it stands I still have to check everything manually anyway and so am very disappointed! using the grammar suggestions has helped me every now and then when writing a text in English or French, but only very rarely in German. But I have so far attributed this to the fact that German is my mother tongue ... :-) I do see Grammar checker as an add-on to sometimes help spot errors; it's by no means perfect (it probably cannot be, or not yet). I'd be interested if you can give me some examples. I can check with a genuine German installation (though I very much doubt that the Spelling/Grammar tools there are different in any way). But you can never know!
