Spell checking
1. I can't turn on automatic spell checking in Word 2007.
2. When I click on the spell check button the program tries to install something and asks me to insert the Microsoft Works 2000 disc. (I removed Works and threw away the disc years ago!) Any suggestions, please? Thanks in advance. |

Spell checking
Hi Thistle,
Check in Add/Remove Programs in the Windows control panel to see if MS Works or MS Word as a separate entry is still listed. If so, as you no longer have the CD, you may want to uninstall the 2000 series items. =========== "Thistle" wrote in message ... 1. I can't turn on automatic spell checking in Word 2007. 2.

Thanks for the prompt response. Works is in the Add/Remove list but there is no Remove button. This entry stayed in the list - minus the Remove button - after I had used it when I thought I was getting rid of Works.

Hi Thistle,
How to remove it without the CD can vary by MS Works or MS Works Suite version. You may want to also post this in the MS Works discussion group with the version name/number listed through the link below. ============= "Thistle" wrote in message ...

Many thanks. Someone on the Works forum came up with the answer very quickly and all seems to work properly now.
