Spell check not working in OpenOffice.org Writer

Post by Subramanyam »

Welcome beginner. What is your question or comment?
Please try to briefly and clearly tell us: What you want, What you tried, and What happened.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sir,

I have been successfully using open office org ver 1.1 for more than a year. Only since last 1month the spellcheck option is not functioning on my computer. It doesn't check anything and every time it says spellcheck complete without doing anything.

Secondly when I tried to save a file in .odt mode, it presents a box asking for password, but the save option is diisabled. this is also happening only since last 15 days.

Pl tell me how I can get over it.

Thanks,

V Subramanyam,

Version 1.1 is really outdated now. Here is a tutorial made for 2.#, it should almost apply on 1.1 I guess: [Tutorial] Spell check and Language configuration.

What about upgrading to 3.0? The RC1 (Release Candidate, i.e. almost final version, not a beta anymore) has just been released: OpenOffice 3.0 schedule?

Thanks to add '[Solved]' at beginning of your first post title (edit button) if your issue has been fixed.
