Hello,

I have a problem with the spell check in Word 2007. It does not correct any mistakes. I have checked all the proofing options, the dictionary, the language settings and the registry. Everything seems correct, yet Word does not pick up any mistakes.

I have the same problem with Outlook.

What else could cause a problem?

Thank you.

Stefan has given you the link. I guarantee the answer is there.

To check your proofing language, type a misspelled word that doesn't get flagged. Select it.

Then under the review tab click on Select Language. Look at the bottom to see if "Do not check spelling or grammar" is checked. I know you checked language, but do it this way if you did not do it this way before. The proofing language is a type of character formatting.
