Hello,

Take a look at this tutor about language and spelling
http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=67
Language (and thus spelling) is something linked to the character/lettertype
in OpenOffice.org, and is usually determined by the way of styles.

For grammar check, there are some projects underway, but OOo till now
doesn't have a complete grammar check installed.

http://www.languagetool.org/
I doubt though that any grammar checker will know whether you should put a
full stop or a question mark at the end of a particular sentence...
