Default Spell check in a protected document

Or, you need to install the macro in the document's template and send that
to your friend (the template). It should not be normal.dot.

Your friend needs to install the macro too.

I put in the macro, and it worked great on my machine. However, when I
sent it to a friend, he could not spell-check or even run the macro for
the spell check. Do you know why this is happening?

No. The macro is already set up for you... all you have to do is copy
and paste. See http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm .

Is ther any other way to do this? An easier way? I am not at all
familiar with setting up macros.

Can I enable spell check in a protected document? Is that possible?
