spell checker trouble!

[kennystringer]

Hello Word Forum!

Well, for some reason my spell checker has stopped working - I generally use it if I'm uncertain of a word's spelling by selecting the word and selecting "spelling and grammar" from the tools menu or by pressing F7 and it has always worked... until recently...

Just lately I've been suspicious so I've deliberately misspelled a word and then checked it, and the spell checker tells me it's fine, or just doesn't recognize the error.

BTW I have the automatic spell checker switched off because the red underline thing gets annoying, I tend to prefer to just check words myself if I'm uncertain of spelling. In any case, any advise or suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks
