I have searched numerous threads and google/yahoo searches for my continuing issues with MS Word 2007 Spell Checker. Spell Checker no longer identifies spelling errors yet grammar correction remains. I have tried registry tweaks and carefully examining the proofing options within Word 2007. I do not have a previous version for a custom install so that is not an option. Spell Check functions fine in ppt and xls but not in Word anymore. If a Word fix is not available are there any free spell checkers that will function inside a word document?
I have Vista Home Premium and the American English spell checker is driving me wild! What I really need is the UK English spell checker that I had with XP
The spell checker is on French and won't let me have it nothing and English is an option. I have installed a 3rd party spell checker, but this one on French seems the one it is going to. BTW, the one on outlook is working in English is the one in Office 07.
In order to resume sending e-mail, I had to return to WM from WLM. I miss the Spellchecker that came with WLM. Is there a way to get a spellchecker for WM?
where to find the spell checker dictionary so I can add or delete words from it? I use open office if that makes any difference, I obviously accepted the wrong spelling of the word "the" and accepted the spelling as "teh" now every time I spell "the" wrong the spell checker does not find the error.
I just installed vista windows mail and am using it. When I tried to use spell checker it said does not support this language. When I tried to change the language I found North American languages and english was not listed anywhere.. What the heck is going on..
1. How do I edit the custom dictionary in Windows Mail? I misspelt "neighbour" as "nieghbour" and cannot undo it. 2. Is there a BRITISH spell checker for the app? It is becoming very tedious to have to add words like "favourite", "neighbour", "realise", and "colour" to the AMERICAN one...
When I edit Word Documents I get something that looks weird with all sorts of strange characters in the document or letter. How do I edit a previously created Word file and get it to look like a normal document like they did with Word 2003?
I use Vista and want to know how to open a file that was originally in Word 97? 2003 to open in Vista Word 2007 and how to convert that file to the Word 2007 format. When I searched Microsoft on this issue, it said to click on Start and look for the word convert. When I did that I could not find the work convert.
Have spent over 2 1/2 hours trying to use the tips to get this working and come up empty-handed each time! Anyone else with a NEW and proven solution to the "Language not enabled" message?
My vista laptop won't spell check in Word. I have tried a number of things to try and solve this problem but none seem to work. I have gone to WORD OPTIONS; PROOFING and checked all the appropriate boxes and it still won't check my spellings. It works for the grammar but doesn't even pick up made up words that I try to test it with! I have checked my dictionary and ran the Microsoft Office Diagnostics. I have watched the tutorials and read one other post with the same problem but there was no solution for it.
1. Once by mistake I okayed i to be added as a word in the spell check. Many times I type in i as there is not enough pressure on the shift key. Question - how do I restore my word dictionary to undo i as an incorrect word?
2. My spell check does not pick up small case for the start of a sentence/paragraph? How do I fix that?
How do I change the spelling of a word in the Spell Check dictionary? By mistake I indicated that TEH was the correct spelling for THE. Now it thinks that teh is ok and doesn't point it out as incorrect.
Word 2007 temporarily freezes to the point that I cannot use it when I do certain things like click on text box and have to wait for the list of templates to be shown. I have to open task manager which makes the list go away, but the next time I click on text box it works normally. This happens on other things where theres similar pretty list of things.
What am I mistakenly activating in Word 2007 that causes a small superscripted zero to appear to the left of some punctuation marks - colons, question marks, quotes etc. It's extremely perplexing and irritating to have to keep getting rid of them. (And what purpose do they serve anyway??? Why would anyone WANT them?)
Ever since a recent autorecovery, my Word 2007 now hangs on startup, although it works fine on another user profile on the same computer. I've tried copying a different Normal template (from the profile of a different user) but that hasn't helped. I'm reluctant to totally remove and reinstall because of macros and add-
I tried doing the same as in 'Word has stopped working' and it did not work for me. I have Vista Home Premium 32 bit and I have Office 2007 (licensed). For a few months Word was working fine and one not-so-fine-day it decided to work errantly. It opens up fine but
- the scroll up and down button stopped working, (also the scroll-bar) - does not open a word file if the file icon is clicked, - when I click the Office-button and then 'Word-Options' the options like 'Trust Center' etc do not work. These do not even get the focus when mouse moves over it - When I close word. It consistently pops up 'Word has stopped working' I guess this has something to do with user-interface icons, buttons etc. I have installed, re-installed Word and also all HP drivers..
I have a problem finding Word 2007 files from the Search field in Windows Explorer. Example: I have a file named "test.docx" in "My Documents", and I can see that file right in the Windows Explorer window. However, if I type, say ".docx", or "test", in the Search field in the top right-hand corner of Explorer, the search comes up empty. I can,however, get the search function to find the file if I: use the Search item on the Start Menu use the "Advanced Search" options in Windows Explorer, and have it search all indexed locations use the "Advanced Search" options in Windows Explorer, and have it search in non-indexed locations, hidden and system files
This problem only seems to exist with .docx files, so this may actually be an issue of the Office 2007 indexer rather than Vista. It looks like the Word indexer does not properly store the location information of the file. Oh, and the problem I have may or may not be related to the fact that on my system I have (of course) relocated the My Documents folder to a separate partition. Are others seeing this, too? Is there a fix for this?
Vista 64 home premium, office 2007 home and students -have word doc open, scroll to send to -and email button is greyed out? I am using windows mail and its set as default e-mail program
Calibri Body as the default font in word is really boring. i prefer arial black, or bauhaus 93. when i create a text box, i have to keep changing the font to my choice, which wastes time when i am doing my homework!
Evidently there are many others who have the same problem since the forums have a lot of people writing to find a solution to this When opening Microsoft Word 2007 a Configuration window would pop up and it would take 40 to 90 seconds for the program to come up. It was worse then some of the Adobe programs.. I'm operating a Vista Ultimate 64x operating system and thought that might be the problem. Evidently it doesn't have anything to do with it. I have been trying for weeks to find the solution to the delay but have been unsuccessful. I checked the many sites Google brought up, checked out several forums and went through all the Microsoft Newsgroups to no avail. I finally found the solution. This is from http://uksbsguy.com/ The full URL is at the bottom of the message. I followed his instructions and IT WORKS!!!! He is evidently a Microsoft employee. This is his solution....How to get rid of the installer / configuration dialog when running Office 2007 and Office 2003 on the same system - for Vista and other versions of Windows
I have been asked this many times following up on the blog entry Installing Office 2003 and Office 2007 on the same system where once people have removed the problem with the End User Licensing Agreement (EULA) appearing every time they start Office they then get the dialogs below every time they switch between Word 2007 and Word 2003. when starting Word 2003 when starting Word 2007 The fix to the problem is very simple as it turns out - simply run the following commands (by pressing the Windows Key+R or typing it into the Start/Run command box. Use the line with Office11.0 if you have Office 2003 installed and Office12.0 if you have Office 2007 installed. You can use both if you have both installed : reg add HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftOffice11.0WordOptions /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1.......
I was able to send an email message from Word 2000 to Outlook Express 6.0 in HTML format. I cannot do that with Word 2007 and Windows Mail. Is there something I can change to get Word 2007 and Windows Mail to send HTML mail merges?
I'm unable to use spell check. I keep getting the following message "This language is no longer available for spell check". What do I need to do to activate spell check?
"An error occurred while the spelling was being checked." After a short power failure (2 or 3 seconds) while Windows Mail as open and being used, this message now appears over each and every email I send. I have reset the default language to English, but that doesn't remedy it.
My laptop is newish. Maybe 2 months now. The model is Advent and I'm running Vista Home Premium. The checker wants to check the Vista drive for consistency. It want's to scan 3 stages. I only gets to the first stage and displayes someting along the lines of:
...... Deleted corrupt entry Type code 128 File 19611 Deleting corrupt record Segment 11459
Readable/writable file not re writable. And then does nothing after this. If this information is not enough I will re do the scan and take down everything displayed. But what can be the problem? I download nothing and scan it daily. I have touched no system files and have only had a small handful of crashes. Is this proble something somebody knows how to solve. This laptop was bought for me and I cannot afford to have it repaired.
I can not find system file checker, after messing up my files in a partitioned desktop Dell XPS 420 . I want to do a restore to yesterday, but can't find system file checker first. I ran an advanced search and it gave me links that would not open. When I followed the directions for sfc to dos. I couldn't get in as administrator. (I am). Search also gave me links to windows 98 links from 2000 from my old machine. do system file checker and restore to yesterday.
