View Full Version : Spell check settings


Bill

I just upgraded to Word XP yesterday. While setting some
personal preferences, I evidently set something in the
spell check
commands that is preventing me from spell checking.

When I try to spell check I get a message that first says
everything is checked, then a second window that
says "Text marked with "Do not check spelling or grammer"
was skipped.

I have typed in purposfully misspelled words in several
different documents, did not knowing "mark" anything and
got the same result, reset what I can think of to no
avail. Help!

Office products!

There are more affordable, if less flexible, options. PDF995

Hi Bill,

In Word, go to Help/Microsoft Word Help/Type in Spell Checking/Search/
Troubleshoot Spell Checking. In OE, go to Tools/Options/Spelling.

Good luck!

Dear Card Carrying Bitch,
I don't understand why you post. Too often you are rude
and not helpful at all

Here's what I mean:
-Lines marked with an * are part of the original post.
-My comments are in brackets

*felix figueroa wrote:

*It means that, in the time it took you to compose this
post you could have
*searched the group and found your answer.

(WTF is your problem, if he wants to post, then that's
his choice. I WOULD agree with you, if I had seen this
question repeadily posted)


*William wrote:

*Err, no. If she had merely registered, but not
activated, then she would not
*receive an "already activated" message. She is not
seeing the activation
*box, so how can she activate. Do you actually read
questions before
*responding, or do you just post the first thing that
pops into your head?

(Talk about being b***hy)

(You may have a point, but if you're not going to answer
his question, then don't post. Let the people who will
spend the 5 seconds to try to understand what he's saying
help him)

back.

(Once again, if you're not going to answer her question,
then don't post. Let the people who will spend the 5
seconds to try to understand what she's saying help her)

groups were for people with questions about a Microsoft
product or service)

lazy, you would help him.)
