Thanks! I could not get my old 1.4 install to spellcheck, but uninstalling and installing the latest and greatest versions worked.
The new PC installer is a godsend. Thank you so very much anyone that worked on that project! I still have issues that I can't get LyX to quit on Alt-F4 like almost all other windows applications. I have messed around with my cua.bind, but nothing works. I can bind Alt-4 and Ctrl-F4 to close LyX, but Alt-F4 still won't do anything. This seems a small issue, but it for me is a big inconsistency in the way lyx works that limits usability in some cases when I try to do most everything without a mouse (Alt-Tab task switching, Any ideas would be appreciated! Thanks again Uwe.

You can use this LyX installer: http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/LyXWinInstaller that automatically installs and configures aspell to work together with LyX. All you need to do is to install some dictionaries - the installer asks you for this and points you to a download repository. > I have reconfigured LyX, and spellcheck is not grayed out. You can ignore this as this setting is by default disabled in LyX for wondows. regards Uwe
