word 2002 keeps shutting off language!!! Why!

[Straitsfan]

I'm using word 2002 and the language setting keeps turning off. This is driving me crazy. There doesn't see to be any rhyme or reason to it. And often times -- just now, for instance -- i had to set it more than once before it stayed on. is there some special keystroke that turns it on and off that I may be typing unknowingly?

I've tried everything I can think of to find out what's going on. I thought that maybe it might have to do with the section breaks in my document -- the top part will have all the wavy red lines, but below that break, they aren't there. This is really annoying and I'd like to find out how to fix this.
