'do not check spelling and grammar' box checked by default

Hi, I have an user that uses Office 2003, and she has problem with
Autocorrect functions in Outlook - well, basically the words that are
misspelles are not being underlined; as Outlook uses Word as text editor, and
all of the options in Outlook have been checked, I've looked into Word
options, and I've found the setting in Tools->Language->Set Language, it's a
little checkbox 'do not check spelling and grammar', and it is checked. When
taking the tick off it was working as required, but the problem is, that
switching it off works only for that single document (or single email for
that matter). Now, I also have Office 2003, and that checkbox is not checked
- how to make it default, permanent for all of the documents on the other
machine??


Many thanks in advance,


Chris

You need to select all of the text, then turn off the "do not check", then
the spell check will work. The "do not check" is applied or removed from the
text that is selected, so if nothign is selected, the change will not affect
anything.
If styles are being used, change that they don't have this setting applied,
else it will always return.
Hope this helps
