Activating Check spelling in WOrd 2003 (really urgent) Hermie (desesparate) 25.06.2006 19:04:01 Hi everone, I have been browsing for ages looking for somewhere that could tell me how to activate the check spelling in word 2003. Basically, on my office I have spanish, french, portugues (Brasil) auto check spelling, so anything I write it can tell me I did wrong... however, I just added a new language (portugues portugal), but it is not set as check spelling. I already added in control painel a new language and set up the word as default, but still not showng the little icon (abc) which means spell checker, does anyone knows how to enable this option... it is really urgent!!!!!! thanks anyway.... Hermie

Re: Activating Check spelling in WOrd 2003 (really urgent) Hermie (desesparate) 28.06.2006 13:58:01 Hello Cindy, I did, but it didnt activate the auto spell check... I can see it as default (or on the list of main languages), there is not the little icons (abc), which means auto spelling check.... what else can I do?¿ cheers, "Cindy M -WordMVP-" wrote: [Quoted Text] > Hi Hermie, > > > I have been browsing for ages looking for somewhere that could tell me how > > to activate the check spelling in word 2003.

If you select text and format it with the new language, then press F7 does that spell check work for this text? And now if you continue to type does the auto spellcheck kick in?
