Furthermore, the list archives have the solution time and time

it takes little time and effort to do a search of these. So you
tell us what would have been better.
Gerry, I don't thing Frank or Jonathon are criticizing your
assistance, but rather the way the program is set up vis-a-vis
languages and styles.
Hi Rod,
Just to point out, I was not the one criticizing GRS, but on the
receiving end myself :)
A lot of people seem to have problems with this as evidenced by the
number of questions this list sees on the topic.
Agreed - all for the same reason - they do not read the manual! :)
There was a discussion some time back about perhaps separating the
language property from the general Styles framework or in some
other way making this stuff more intuitive and user-friendly.
I don't know whether the paradigm needs to be changed or how
exactly it should be changed, but I do think it is an unfortunate
design choice to make the user select the language in multiple
locations in order to affect the desired results.
In all honesty Rod, I don't think a paradigm shift will help that
much with this sort
of problem. The issue is that people expect the spellchecker to work
for their
language because the UI is in that language. So unless we have something
that is blatently obvious like a language menu which lists the
different languages
and is required to be set for each document, then we will always see
this issues.
Regards
Jonathon
