I don't use Evolution, but I had a quick look and can't see any obvious way of calling a spellcheck, so I'll leave that to someone who does use it. I recommended installing both aspell and ispell, as I know that applications don't all use the same, and I'm not sure which uses which one. I can tell you, though that in OO0, if you have the dictionary installed, you then must go to Tools > Options > Language Settings > Languages and set those boxes right. After that the spell check should work OK. Anne -- Registered Linux User No.293302
