Using MS office XP with word 2002 and SP-1 installed. Spell check works when I create new document. It is set up to check automatically, and it does. But it will not check the main merge document (doc with the fields) and merged document (document(s) created when I run merge. This may help: In Tools\Language\Set Language … the box “Do not check spelling or grammar” is always partially grayed when I select all the text, even if I deselect it, it always goes back. But this is only with the ‘main merge and merged docs’. It remains unchecked with normal docs. This could be big problem with cover letters (I really cannot spell like I use to).
I already checked Tools\Options\Spelling & Grammar, but everything looks good. Deselected, saved, and selected again, but no good.
I am an unemployed level-1 (with some hardware and network) support tech.
Thank you in advance,
Joe
