Subject: [discuss] Erratic spelcheker



Why is it, that, sometimes the spellchecker works, and, sometimes it doesn't?

It is not a case of malapropisms, but, words that are glaringly obviously, misspelt, and "auto spell check" doen't find them, and, neither does clicking on the Tools->Spellcheck menu option.

The latest case was in a document that I started to create using AbiWord, which saved a .doc document in RTF format (?) (the file name extension was .doc, and the file manager showed the file type as RTF), that I opened with Open Office (I created the document with AbiWord, as Open Office causes system failures, when more than about 60% system memory is being used, so I tried to avoid that by using AbiWord, but that went wonky), then I saved the file as an MS Word97 file, and reopened it, but, still, the Open Office spell checker did not find any of the obvious spelling errors.

I am using Open Office 2.0.4 (the latest stable one for Debian Linux).
