Spell check WORD 2007 doesn't work
Jesse 12/18/2008 11:48:01 PM
I have a new (Dec 2007) PC that came with Office 2007 (Student Home ed)
installed. I have double checked the various settings (language/auto
check/uncheck hide spelling errors) several times but I can't get the spell
check to work. I intentionally miss-spell a word (easy for me) and the
squiggly red line doesn't appear nor when I hit the check spell button is the
mistake flagged - message comes back that no errors were found. How do I fix
this? I have the same problem with Excel and Powerpoint.

Not a techie or power user.
