Hello Stephen, Do you have the dictionary installed on this HP/Vista machine? (do you have a abcV next to your language in the Format>Character>Lettertype dialog ? if not, install dictionary with Fila > Wizard > New word list from net) Do you use page or paragraph styles that specify this language? Beware of different country definitions of same language (UK and US English etc.) HTH -- Guy using dutch OOo 2.3 m221 on a iMac Intel DualCore Tiger and brazilian OOo 2.3 RC 3 on a G4 PPC Powerbook Tiger -- please reply only to [email protected] -- Dodoes can't afford to have headaches --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
