Spell check not resetting to check all text in outgoing email mess
How can I enable spell check to check all text. For some reason it says that
certain text is marked "do not check" I go in and manually click on the box in tools/language/enable spell check but it automatically resets itself - using Word 2003 and outlook 2003 |

A style can have a language setting, trying looking at the style to see if it's been set to Do Not Check Spelling under Language. You can also try selecting the whole doc, clearing the Do Not Check under Language and then go to Tools Options Spelling tab and click Recheck Doc. I've had this happen and I think doing the two steps back to back has cleared some "document issue" thing. ~Lori "Dana" wrote: How can I enable spell check to check all text.

Thanks Lori - I tried your suggestions and it is still defaulting to "do not
check" this is frustrating! Dana "Lori" wrote: Dana~ A style can have a language setting, trying looking at the style to see if it's been set to Do Not Check Spelling under Language.

Here's a laundry list of other things to try, after this I'm tapped out. - Use the Reveal Formatting pane to see and check "direct formatting" at the bottom to see more specifically what's going on with the text, if you see anything about Asian Text ... Sorry you're own your own - pesky MS Proofing tools ... grrr - Look for hidden text, this includes Track Changes so make sure you're in Final w/Markup - Try changing the font to something "usual" like Times New Roman or Arial, if you are using one of those, switch to the other - Is the text in all upper or include numbers, if so clear those boxes under Tools Options Spelling If those leave you still having problems I'd use the sledgehammer Try deleting your Normal.dot and your word temp files, look for any undeleted autosaves that sort of thing. If all else fails, copy the text, paste it into notepad and back into a brand spanking new doc, you'll have to restylize it.

Spell check not resetting to check all text in outgoing email
Lori,
You are a trooper - thank you! I think a sledgehammer might be in order!!!!! This is happening from my signature file - for some reason I think that using a graphic as my email letterhead is turning off spell check. If I type in above the graphic - I just found out that spell check works (however I have no formatting!) Below the graphic in my formatting spell check doesn't work - I guess I can get in the new habit of writing everything above then cutting and pasting - then using the format painter to change the format - YUCK!! An inelegant solution! I do appreciate your help - maybe this is just an outlook problem! Thanks again, Dana "Lori" wrote: Dana~ Here's a laundry list of other things to try, after this I'm tapped out. - Use the Reveal Formatting pane to see and check "direct formatting" at the bottom to see more specifically what's going on with the text, if you see anything about Asian Text ...

Spell check not resetting to check all text in outgoing email

We have a similar problem w/graphics in our GroupWise signature block somehow effecting the underinglying HTML code when it hits other mailservers. I say this because... Check to see what the settings are on your graphic, look at the alignment settings: Is it "empty" if so set to something specific or "not set" if that's an option or vice verse. Look at the Alternate text, is that "empty" trying adding something, or vice verse. Is there a hyperlink associated? Did you embed the graphic in a table? I've seen docs that start with tables do some weird things when they interact with other applications. Try deleting the table and setting the alignment for the graphic. You said the problem is with a signature block, do you have the spell check problem with the doc as a stand alone? I recommend changing them one at a time until you see if you find the problem. ~Lori "Dana" wrote: Lori, You are a trooper - thank you! I think a sledgehammer might be in order!!!!!
