I begin the campaign  :  DO NOT UPGRADE  the OPEN OFFICE  UNLESS the SPELL 
CHECK IS GOING TO WORK   .. I don know who decides when to upgrade it,  but how 
many of us have a problem  with the spell check after it.
The  solution given, solution at end, made with respect,  is Neanderthal Time  
!!!

I saw it the same answer before in this  "chat"Spell check is an aptitude old 
as word editors.  Do not touch it.

Letś stand on it :  I vote DO NOT UPGRADE  the OPEN OFFICE  UNLESS the SPELL 
CHECK IS GOING TO WORK

Start by renaming your OpenOffice user profile.

As you are using Windows close OpenOffice and the Quickstarter. Open File
Explorer. Copy and paste %appdata%\OpenOffice\4 in the File Explorer (sometimes 
called Windows Explorer)
Address Bar and press Enter. Rename the "user" folder - "user.old" is a
good choice. Start OpenOffice.

This cures most spellcheck problems.
