------- Additional comments from [email protected] Thu Jul 23 17:17:31 +0000 2009 ------- Having similar problems. Seems to be related to how the document is made. The spell checking does not work when a file is created from Windows Explorer: In Windows Explorer, do a right click -> New -> OpenDocument Text to create an .odt file. Open it in OpenOffice. No spell checking, as described above. Interestingly, you can then save this document as MS Word .doc format, open it in MSWord, and there is still no spell checking. However, if you start OpenOffice first and create a new document from within OpenOffice, spell checking works. It continues to work if you save the file as MSWord format then open it in MSWord. I am also using the Canadian English dictionary. Is some piece of information that spell checking requires missing from files created by a Windows Explorer right click? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
