| 1131704 | 2010-08-26 03:45:00 | Just wondering whether anyone else out there is using MS Office 2010 and having problems with the spell checker not working . I thought I was seeing things when I first noticed it and thought there may have been a word spelt that particular way - no dictionary contains the word . It's not picking up spelling errors, grammar, double words / letters, etc . I've made deliberate mistakes in a document just to make sure, but it always comes back as "spell check completed no mistakes" . Am I missing something ??? Tried looking through options etc and everything looks good but I've recently changed from 2007 to 2010 and while there are differences, I wouldn't have thought spell check would have changed . Language is set to NZ English as default . A bug maybe ??? |

| 1131707 | 2010-08-26 04:10:00 | When you installed Office did you install proofing tools? | Deimos (5715) | ||
| 1131708 | 2010-08-26 04:18:00 | There's not much else that can be ticked Zippity ... added spell check to the quick access bar, language is set correctly ... got me stuffed !!! | SP8's (9836) | ||
| 1131709 | 2010-08-26 04:26:00 | Demios .... Not sure on that, but in Word Options there is a Proofing tab where you select all of the options for Spell Check eg Auto correct options, dictionary, flag double words etc, etc, etc, Everything SEEMS to be there and should be working ... its not. | SP8's (9836) | ||
| 1131710 | 2010-08-26 04:41:00 | check it with the US language in case its a bug with the NZ dictionary | The Error Guy (14052) | ||
| 1131711 | 2010-08-26 04:42:00 | A long shot - have a read of post #3 (forums.techarena.in) | wainuitech (129) | ||
| 1131712 | 2010-08-26 04:50:00 | Wainui, Zippity, Error Guy .... SORTED !! Got onto the MSN site and found the solution. Apparently, even though the language is selected in "Word Options", It also has to be set in the "Reveiw" Tab on the ribbon > select language. Now everything's showing up red n green like it's 'sposed to :clap :banana :clap |
