Tools>Options>Language Settings>Languages shows which dictionaries are installed. There is a box labelled "Default language for documents". This must show the language you want *and* the language name *must* have a tick and a little "abc" in front of it. If the tick and "abc" are not there then the dictionary for that language is not installed. In this case, go to File>Wizards>"Install new dictionaries" and choose the dictionary you need. Once it has been installed the spell checker should work. Go back and check that the tick and "abc" now shows against the Default language for documents. If you still have problems, come back here with exact details of what you did and what happened, particularly the details of any error messages you got. -- Harold Fuchs London, England Please reply *only* to users@openoffice.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Probably not. The most likely scenario is that you have the default language set to English (Canada) or perhaps even French (Canada), but you have not installed the relevant dictionary. The default OpenOffice package comes bundled with some dictionaries, but neither of the Canadian ones are included. If there is no dictionary, OpenOffice simply doesn't find anything to complain about and says everything's OK! Go to File | Wizards > | Install new dictionaries... and follow the instructions to download and install what you need. If this is not the problem, you may have some settings not appropriately set. If so, ask for further advice if necessary. Brian Barker - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
