When Word checks spelling, it has to know the language of the text it is
checking. You set the language for any text either explicitly through Tools
> Language, or as part of the style definition. One of the "languages" is
'do not check spelling or grammar' -- it's useful if the text is matter that
Word can't check anyway, like lists of part numbers, Pitjantjatjara poetry,
etc. The message is telling you that you have some text so marked in your
document. You can use Find to locate it.
