Word is designed to retain personalisations so uninstalling Office will not
remove the registry entry. If present you will have to remove it yourself.

uninstalling the office 2007 wil help?

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 and any other open applications.
b. Click on Start | Run | Open: regedit .
c. If the key "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shared
Tools\Proofing Tools\1.0\Override" exists, delete it.
d. Exit regedit.
e. Restart your computer.

the last couple of days my spell checker in word 2007 is greyed out
when i try to run it to correct spelling mistakes. It won't let me
choose the correct spelling of the word it want. Should i uninstall
office 2007 and then reinstall it back?
