word and spell checker: download from google documents
Hello, I have downloaded a document with spelling errors from google documents. However when I run the spell checker on word 2007 it does not detect the spelling errors. How can I get it to work? Is there a way to empty the "spelling cache" on microsoft word? Is there a way to tell word 2007 to forget about: a) all word accepted as spelled correctly in the current document b) all word accepted as spelled correctly at the application level rather than at the specific document level Thank you for all your help, John Goche |

word and spell checker: download from google documents
The most likely cause of this is the text that you copied has no language
assigned to it. SelectAll (Ctrl+A) and then click on Review Tab, Set Language and choose your local language. Make sure that none of the check boxes at the bottom of the dialog are checked. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "John Goche" wrote in message ...

I did a cut and paste and also unchecked the "Detect language automatically" box under "Set Language" under the "Review" tab and I was then able to properly run the spell checker. On the other hand if instead of cutting and pasting from google documents at docs.google.com I do a proper download by right-clicking on the name of the document and then selecting in the javascript menu: "Export as" - "Save as Word..." then the when I open the downloaded document in word the default language is mysteriously set to Russian (Russia) which I find really strange since I am in the UK and have purchased MS Office Ultimate also in the UK with all the buttons in English. But even after changing the language to English (United Kingdom) the spell checker pertaining to microsoft word 2007 simply reports spell check complete, which is wrong in view that the cut and paste results in some words being detected as mispellt. So what is going wrong here? Anyone care to try doing the same thing and confirm the problem? Thank you for your help. So how can I clear my cache history to do a proper English (UK) text-spell after doing a proper google documents download via the provided google documents javascript menu appearing when you right-click on the google document in google documents? Thanks, John Goce |
