Details of the User Profile for various operating systems are given in https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=74&t=12426 If you are using Windows close OpenOffice and the Quickstarter. Open File Explorer. Copy and paste %appdata%\OpenOffice\4 in the File Explorer Address Bar and press Enter. Rename the "user" folder - "user.old" is a good choice. Start OpenOffice. This cures most spellcheck problems It can sometimes happen that an installation produces a faulty user profile "out of the box". The above fix works in the vast majority of cases. -- Rory O'Farrell <ofarr...@iol.ie> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
