Is it possible to show errors only if they are wrong in BOTH languages?
I usually write in german and english. If i use a word in english it gets marked as an error, even though it's correct. Just because it's wrong in german. I have to manually select english for this specific word(s) - everytime
Is it possible to show errors only if they are wrong in both languages, so that i don't have to manually switch the languages? (I would prefer not to add those words to the german dictionary.) |

You might try a macro like:
Code:
Sub CheckLanguage() Application.ScreenUpdating = False Dim Rng As Range For Each Rng In ActiveDocument.Range.SpellingErrors With Rng If .LanguageID = wdEnglishUK Then .LanguageID = wdGerman If .SpellingErrors.Count > 0 Then ActiveDocument.Undo ElseIf .LanguageID = wdGerman Then .LanguageID = wdEnglishUK If .SpellingErrors.Count > 0 Then ActiveDocument.Undo End If End With Next Application.ScreenUpdating = True End Sub For Mac macro installation & usage instructions, see: Word:mac - Install a Macro

Nice.
Elegant. Kuchen: What it does is check spelling errors to see if changing the language setting gets rid of the error report. It essentially runs two spell checks. My reading is that if it does not get rid of the errors, it puts everything back, but I could be wrong about that. If it does get rid of the errors it leaves the words marked in the appropriate language. |
