Hi Karl,

there is no need to purchase the spellchecker and Thesaurus.

Do the following: Writer menu "File I Wizards I Install new dictionaries". A file will open, click on English. From there is should be no problem for you to install the spellchecker and Thesaurus.

Hope this helps,
Tina

Please can you advise me? I am quite computer-illiterate but have used Windows 98 for some years mainly for text documents. I have just downloaded and installed OpenOffice 1.1.5, quite frankly because I cannot afford to update my Office 2000 for financial reasons.

My problem:  I write text documents both in English and German.  I have no 
problem with English but am unable to operate the spell checker in German, even 
when I have set the language to German.   So I  wonder if this is not included 
with the Office Suite I have installed.  Is it possible to obtain or purchase a 
German spellchecker and Thesaurus for Open Office 1.1.5 please?  If so, how can 
I get it and how much would it cost?

Thank you in advance for a reply and advice.. My Email address is [EMAIL
