Spell Check

Guest

Hello,

Currently spell check does not work properly in my Outlook 2003. Spell
check is turned on and configured properly. With all new messages are
replies, spell check does not work for alll teh text I am typing in the new
message or reply.

If I use the spell check, a dialogue box appears saying "Spelling and
Grammer Check is Complete". No mis-spelled words are prompted for
correction. In replies, spell check will work properly for the portion of
the reply that is the original message but not any of the new text of the
reply.

Also, I can get spell check to work if pasting text in the new email or the
reply from another program like Microsoft Publisher. All mis-spelled text
is immediately highlighted and spell check works fine for the whole message
properly.

What is causing this spell check issue and how do I fix it? The account was
original converted from an Outlook Express account. I am thinking that that
has something to do with it.

Another funny issue is the font I have selected to be used in all messages
and replies is never used. For some reason Outlook insists on using the
"Time New Roman" font style. Depending on where I start typing text
determins which of the 2 font types Outlook will use. One line may be
Verdana, another may be Time New Roman. Crazy I tell you!!!

I have done a reinstall of office and nothing has changed. I hope someone
can help me with these crazy issues.

Thanks for any help............
Stephan

I'm not sure I can help you with all the issues, but to run a spell check,
press the "F7" button on your keyboard. This should run it for the selected
text, and ask you if it should check the remainder of the document.
