The ability to spell check is determined by matching the language of your
text to the language of your dictionary. Check tools language. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org drh05 wrote: The spell check in word in office xp version 2002 has quit working.

Language is English. When I pasted some test into doc. I got underlined miss
spelling. Then I changed the style to normal web, like the style I had pasted, and then could see all the misspellings in doc. Thought all was good. However went an opened another doc and started typing and it didn't catch any misspellings, even when I changed style to noral web like before.

In the aforementioned language dialog is the 'do not check spelling'
checkbox checked? What are the proofing setiings in your paragraph style definition? What defaults do you have set in tools options spelling? Rather than go through a selection of possibilities it would be simpler if you looked through the troubleshooting tips at http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...peningWord.htm which if followed to their conclusuion will allow you to reconfigure Word as it was originally installed. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org drh05 wrote: Language is English.
