5. The Speller would not check my spelling. What happened?
If all or part of your document gets flagged as being in a language for which you do not
have a dictionary installed, the Speller skips over those parts. Also, it appears that Word
will sometimes flag documents created by other programs for "no proofing". If Word will not
check your spelling, make sure the Speller is using the English dictionary and that none of
the text is flagged for proofing in another language (or not at all):

1. Select the block of text you want the Speller to skip.
2. Choose Language from the Tools menu, then choose Set Language.

Most of these settings are on the Tools menu. The Options command will display a screen that contains several tabs where you can make all sorts of changes that affect Word's behavior.
