Turns out I was actually using the English UK that came with OpenOffice
2.0 so then I tried selecting the English USA instead. All the tick
boxes are there - makes no odds. So next I downloaded some specific
Australian English dictionaries. No change. You can type anything you
like and it lets it through. It says it is doing a check, but when you
run Spellcheck it immediately comes back with no errors found no matter
what you type.<br>
<br>
Anyone had anything similar?? I just don't have time this week to go
hunting and testing. I might tackle it this weekend instead since it
is not urgent. Any other suggestions are most welcome though!!</blockquote>
See my earlier post.<br>
<br>
You have to install the dictionary via the WIZARD.<br>
<br>
Then when you select the dictionary, it will have ABC and a tick next
to it.<br>
<br>
If you have a look at the available dictionaries in OO, you can see
that there are heaps, but...<br>
the only ones that will work are the ones marked "ABC and a tick"<br>

That makes sense. Silly question then - where's the wizard??<br>
