I am not sure if I’ve done something by accident to make this happen, but now if I press f 7, nothing happens and if I try to access spellcheck via menues it states that it is unavailable. In options, under spellchecking tab everything seems as it should be. Always check spelling before sending box is checked, though I don’t see how or if it should make any difference. Automatically correct common capitalisation is checked, again seems irelevant anyway, check my spelling as I type is unchecked, again shouldn’t be relevant and I’ve checked it for a while just to be sure but it didn’t bring the abilitty to spellcheck back, check spelling in current input language is checked and language is set to Brittish english in the list. However, there is no way to click on apply and if I click on OK next time I go to spelling options, the UK english is deselected. So, what am I doing wrong?
