Verify that you have aspell and its english component installed. I had to manually install them as they weren't installed by default. In a terminal type: sudo apt-get install aspell aspell-en Then OpenOffice.org and click on Tools > Options > Language Settings > Languages. And under "Default Languages for Documents" section, select your desired English language whilst making sure it has a 'ABC' icon next to the language. Note: The 'ABC' icon means that there is a dictionary installed for this language. Hope this helps. -- Chris Jones <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- ubuntu-au mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au
