Word 97 spelling greyed out - why?
For some reason when I installed Word 97 on my XP PC the spellcheck is greyed out. It does grammar fine - a lot of use that is - but under tools spelling and grammar, the spelling section is greyed out. I know it's an ancient program but it does me fine. Any ideas what's wrong?

Thanks GLC,
but oddly HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Proofing Tools\Spelling doesn't exist - grammar is there a custome and a few others but no spelling folder. I guess I need to reinstall something - what? Do I need to uninstall first? Dazzer |

I'd reinstall Word, and do a custom install and make sure you are installing the spellchecker.
