Default How do I get the CONTEXTUAL SPELLING options (blue wavy lines) wor

How do I get the CONTEXTUAL SPELLING options (blue wavy lines) working. I
have already active the option in, Word Option, Proofing, Use contextual
spelling, but it is still not working. For example: €śI will see you their€ť.
The word €śtheir€ť must be blue wavy underline, but mine is not working.
I hope there is someone who can help me.

Thanks Es

I wouldn't rely too heavily on this function, which seems a bit hit and miss
in use. Your example isn't flagged - but 'Their is' should be corrected.

Default How do I get the CONTEXTUAL SPELLING options (blue wavy lines)

Hello Es,

The contextual speller in Office 2007 identifies the mistake in the sentence
you give:
I will see you their.

"Their" is squiggled with a blue wavy line on my machine and, if you
right-click on the word, €śthere€ť is suggested as a correction. Try another
sentence such as the following one: I bought her a nice pear of shoes. €śPear€ť
should also be squiggled.

You can find more information on this contextual speller on our blogs:

As you will see, contextual spelling is turned on by default if your machine
has at least 1 GB of RAM. Try closing Word and launching a new session. It
should normally work.

I hope it helps,
