Microsoft Word Question

I cannnot get microsoft word to spell check as I type. I have not changed any settings and under options the "check spelling as you type" box is selected. Why is it still doing this? Are there any other settings I should check? Does anyone else have this problem? I know it's not really a big deal but it can be an annoyance. Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

Search out and delete the defualt template called Normal.dot

It'll get recreated next time you go into Word.


If that doesn't help, UNcheck the "check spelling" option. Close word. Reopen would and put the check mark back in. This might update the registry.

What version??
