Ed, I haven't been following all the answers give to help you, but wanted to throw out a couple of my own. You may have already tried these, but if not they may help. The problem you describe is not a normal problem. LO normally does spell check fine so there has to be something in the install or setup that went wrong so before you jump ship please try the following: 1. Close LO and rename you profile to something else than it is now, reboot the computer then restart LO Writer. This should put you back to defaults. 2. If #1 didn't help then close LO, rename the profile again and uninstall LO. Reboot your computer and then reinstall LO, checking the language/dictionary settings (2 places) during the advanced install. Hopefully this will give you a normally functioning LO. Hope this helps.
