This is usually caused by a Style being created that isn't based on an
existing Style. Click your cursor in a paragraph of a known culprit, click "Format", "Styles and Formatting" (might be Styles in an older version), modify that Style by changing the "Language" used (probably set to "No Language" right now). Depending on the version of Word you are using, there might be a "Do not check spelling and grammar" checkbox that you need to uncheck. Which by the way is a great reminder to ALWAYS provide the version of Word you are using since the steps might vary slightly by versions. -- Bill Foley, Microsoft MVP (PowerPoint) Microsoft Office Specialist Master Instructor - XP www.pttinc.com Check out PPT FAQs at: http://www.rdpslides.com/pptfaq/ Check out Word FAQs at: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/index.htm "OfficeWorker" wrote in message ...

Ctrl+A to select the entire document. Then go to Tools | Language | Set
Language and make sure that the appropriate language is checked (instead of "(no proofing)" in Word 97 and earlier) and that the box for "Do not check spelling and grammar" is not checked (even grayed). -- Suzanne S.
