[Solved] Spell checker failing

Post by JLEARWIG »

HI
been using OO for some time & this is 1st time I've had an issue
currently on a Win 7 m\c with OO 4.1.5

Spellcheck say every word is in error & offers wrong suggestions for replacement i.e. offers "Sun" for the word "June" when clearly June isn't wrongly spelt.

Have checked that my version is latest ( I think) although the check update link in OO seems to fail the main Apache site says 4.1.5 is current
Java also seems to be up to date & is registered in Open Office with correct local path

hope this is a simple fix !
thanks

OK that did the trick

The next post in the link to resetting the profile - viewtopic.php?p=58403#p58581 - has details on what information is stored in which parts of the profile.
