Word 2007 Spell check does not work. I have reinstalled my program and tried changing the Key users dictionary?

Any other suggestions?Word 2007 Spell check does not work. I have reinstalled my program and tried changing the Key users dictionary?
Can't be sure what's happening from your description, but here's a checklist of things that have to be set to do spell checking in Word.



First, the proofing tools for the appropriate language have to be installed, usually from the Office CD. Then,



1. Click the Office button in the upper-left corner.

2. Click the Word Options button.

3. Click the Proofing tab.

4. Check Check Spelling As You Type.

5. Check the Mark Grammar Errors As You Type checkbox.

6. Check the Check Grammar With Spelling checkbox. Note the Settings button. With this, you can select or deselect many nit-picking checks.

7. Uncheck the Hide Spelling Errors In This Document checkbox.

8. Uncheck the Hide Grammar Errors In This Document checkbox.

9. Click OK.



And to make sure spell checking isn鈥檛 turned off for any section of the document:



1. Press CTRL/A to select the entire document.

2. Click the Review tab on the Ribbon.

3. In the Proofing section, click Set Language.

4. Uncheck Do Not Check Spelling Or Grammar.

5. Click the Default button. (To make this change permanent.)

6. Click Yes in the message box.

7. Click OK.



Hope that helps.
