OpenOffice language settings

2006-11-22 Thread Barry

Hi,

I am using OOwriter 1.1.4.

When I invoke the spellchecker the language comes up as 'English(USA)' 
and the dictionary as 'Standard(All)' The drop down options do not work.


In language settings I set the language to English(NZ).

In writing aids I set the spelling language to English(NZ) and it 
reverts to English(Aust)


In /usr/share/dict/ooo are files for AU, Ca, GB, NZ and US.

Please, how do I force the spellchecker to use the NZ dictionary?

Select

Format  Character emnu

Font tab

there is a Language setting that seems to default to English (USA).

I guess the idea is that you can set the language for individual words
(as well as paragraphs, the document and OOo as a whole).
