Anne.

Thanks for your prompt reply.

I do have Aspell installed. 

Kword started with the spelling settings of

Dictionary: English
ISO: 8859-1
Client: International Ispell

I changed the settings to the ones you gave me and typed a few words, some 
with spelling mistakes. When I tried to spell check, KWord crashed!

On restarting, it had defaulted back to the settings I gave at the beginning 
of this reply. Nothing happens when I try to spell check using these 
settings. Ispell is installed. I have tried many combinations of Dictionary, 
ISO, and Client, but it always starts with the "default" settings, rather 
than the ones I have changed it to. Most combinations just don't work, but 
some make it crash.

Very peculiar! 

Keith
