I need to Spell/Grammar check documents that may have sections in which:
Tools->Language->Set Language->Do not check spelling or grammar
had been enabled.
I want to disable it in order to recheck spelling and grammar.
However, I find that I can only disable this feature on pieces of the
document, not on the entire doc at once. (I am having to select individual
tables for example.)
Am I doing something wrong by:
a) Edit->Select All
b) Tools->Language->Set Language
c) unchecking 'Do not check spelling or grammar' so that it WILL check
spelling and grammar
?
thanks,
-john

Thanks for looking at this problem.
Stefan, yes, the check mark is usually grey and I have to click it twice in
order to attempt to disable the checking.
In fact, I would say that it is this checkbox which is broken. Because, even
if I leave it unchecked, thereby asking for it to perform the checking, and
then click OK to leave the dialog, when I reenter the dialog, the checkbox
has gone back to being greyed.
:(
Any other thoughts?
FWIW I am using Word 2003 (11.6568.6568) SP2.
thanks,
-john
