Hi Ed This is usually due to not having the appropriate dictionary installed (File - Wizards - Install new dictionaries) or a mismatch between your document language setting and the OOo language setting. Check Tools-Options-Language Settings- Languages. There should be a little ABC with a check mark against the language if the dictionary is installed. Right click on a paragraph of text, choose Character and you will be able to see what is set for that text. Look in Help for setting up a default template if you need to, so these settings are retained.
