For some things it's surprisingly bad and for others it's pretty good. It tends to flag clear errors but can't understand meaning. Word 2007 is significantly better than previous versions tho' - I was playing at work today and Word 2003 was pretty pitiful in many respects but typing this message (using Outlook 2007 which uses Word 2007 as the editor) caught every error I tried to throw at it. For example it automatically converts "Their is a dog." to "There is a dog." For "We have there dog." it highlights the mistake but doesn't auto-correct it. The sentence might be "We have there a dog." I suppose. Neither "There not here." Isn't flagged but "Their not here." Is (offering to replace it with "They're"). It's pretty clear that there was a major grammar-check upgrade in the new version.
