Spell-check-default font installation

[napa1]

I have used Windows Word for some time and still have on my OS 10, but I am now using Open Office. How do I install the auto/underline as in Windows Word on misspelled words?
Next question: I prefer a different default font and how is that done??
Thank you
Bill

To get spellchecking working, try this:
The quick cure for this is to rename the OpenOffice user profile.

AIf you are using Windows close OpenOffice and the Quickstarter. Open File
Explorer. Copy and paste %appdata%\OpenOffice\4 in the File Explorer
Address Bar and press Enter. Rename the "user" folder - "user.old" is a
good choice. Start OpenOffice.

This cures most spellcheck problems

Details on the User Profile for other operating systems are given in

To get a different default font for all new documents try making a new default template. Details are in
