How do I turn ON spell check for text marked with "do not check...

[Guest]

How do I turn ON the spell checker in Word when I get the message "Spell
Check Complete. Text marked with "do not check for spelling or grammer" was
skipped"?

Press Ctrl+A (select all), Tools - Language - Set Language, click the
desired language, then click OK.

But, the larger question is "How did do not check..." get enabled for some
text. It can happen when pasting text from other sources, and can be avoided
by pasting as unformatted text, rather than accepting Word's default paste
method (Edit - Paste Special - Unformatted text).
