I am currently working with Word 97 and i am trying to
find an accurate way to work the spelling and grammer
checker in spanish. So far the origional on the program is
enabled but not working and i cannot find any reason for
the problem. Any help i can get to make the thing work
would be very appriciated.

Thanks,
Adam Campbell

Unless you explicitly installed a Spanish checker from another source, you
will not get any native spell-check support from Word 97. Later versions of
Office/Word include Spanish and French proofing tools "in the box".

Your basic choices with Word 97 are to upgrade or find a third-party
solution.
