218060 2004-02-25 09:25:00 The 'Auto correct' feature of my Word (Office 2003) is not working although the auto correct option has been abled. It also does not check my spelling as I type. 'Check spelling as you type' is checked, too. Don't really know what's wrong.

Any ideas??? OS: XP Pro

218061 2004-02-25 09:41:00 Same things happened to me....
But Word will check for spellings and grammar when you do it through tools.........
But it's not as good as when autocheck is working properly that's for sure.

218062 2004-02-25 09:52:00 The strange thing is, my other machine with Word 2003 is working fine. It is checking the spelling as I type and auto correct is also working fine.

I've compared the Word configurations and they 'seems' to be the same.

218063 2004-02-25 09:56:00 For me, everything went fine until I formatted my hard drive and reinstalled it. I've tried reinstalling it but it doesn't work...:-( AZREAL (1795)
218064 2004-02-25 09:58:00 Well, just found the way to put it right:

Click the spelling checker button and when the Spelling window opens, click the 'AutoCorrect' button on the lower right.

This will put everything right. Really weird????

218067 2004-02-25 10:07:00 It works but it's back to being 'not working' when I exit word and restart word again. AZREAL (1795)
