MS Office Forum / Word / Spelling and Grammar / January 2004Won't check entire document
I'm having a problem where Office XP 2002 won't spellcheck an entire document. It's 57 pgs. long. and Office only check the first 2-3 pgs. then retunrs a msg. of "Text marked with Do Not check spelling or grammar was Skipped". Is anyone familiar with this problem? thanks, tr Hi Tom, Select all of the text in the document and then select Language from the Tools menu, then Set Language and make sure that the "do not check spelling or grammar" box is completely unchecked.

I dont know why it does it but the workaround I had was to recheck the document grammer/spelling. Go to the Tools menu-select Options and then click on the Spelling and Grammer tab. At the bottom of the dialog box there is a button to recheck the document. When you click on this button you will get a warning telling you that the document will have to be rechecked which is OK. Now run the spell checker again. I hope this helps. ------------------------------------------------ Select your entire document (Ctrl-A) and then under tools select "language." There is a checkbox for "do not check spelling or grammar." Check and then uncheck that box. (You want it to be unchecked, not gray.) Close the language dialog. Press Ctrl-Home and then F7. This seems to be a common problem. If it is happening in a lot of your documents, check the formatting in your templates carefully to see if that setting is used in them.
