hello, i am very glad about your programs, but i have a little problem
i'm using open office version 2.0.german. my problem is, that the
grammar correction doesn't work. it says grammer corrected, whitout
doing nothing, the same problem is in the thesaurus-function. but at
beginning when i was using it, it worked. i already have read the
f.a.q. but didn't find an answer. how can i fix it? and if it works,
it just will be in german (for my german version) or in any language
thanx

First, I didn't know OpenOffice (OO) had grammar checking. I know it has
spell checking and hyphenation checking but I didn't know about grammar.
Where do you set this?
For spelling you need to have the right dictionary installed *and* have
enabled that language, either as the default for your document(s) or on a
paragraph by paragraph basis.
To do it for all your documents, go to Tools>Options>Language
Settings>Languages and choose the "Default language for documents" from the
list. If the language you choose has a small tick mark (like the Nike logo)
and "abc" next to it then the language has the dictionary installed and can
be spell checked. If not, then you need to install the dictionary via
File>Wizards>Install New Dictionaries and choose the variant of German you
need (I assume Swiss but ...). Once the right dictionary is installed you
can choose the default language and OO will be able to spell check properly.
