I assume you have not done anything too strange such as defining different languages using character and paragraph styles. Open the document you are experiencing problems with Go to Tools>Options Open (click on the plus) the "Languages settings" section and select "Languages" In the "Default Languages setting for documents, select the desired language. Note that for the spelling checker to be active, the language must have a blue tick symbol next to it. If not do not despair just yet... Click OK to close the Options dialog. Ok, now, if your language was supported you are done, otherwise you will need to install a new dictionary. If this is the case try to use the auto pilot (File > Wizards > Install new dictionaries) and follow the instructions. Cheers, Michele
