Thanks Christine
I've learned something knew.
By the way, rather than tabbing 12 times to "recheck document" button you
can also just click alt-k

George,  if I understand the question correctly:

From within Microsoft Word  go to:
        tools
        options
        spelling and grammer page               
Then tab about 12 times across to "recheck document" button and press enter.


Hope the above is helpful to you and to Jayne.

Christine

Hi Susan,
 
The question I have, and I suspect Jayne too, is how do you force Word to
re-spell check a document?
 
I have regularly seen situations where a miss-spelled word has been accepted
in error, and as far as Word is concerned - that's it!  Check again, and it
won't find any errors.
 
George.

Jayne,
 
You have a couple of options to run the spell checker. The easiest thing to
do is press F7 which activates the spell checker. However, if you want the
red squiggly lines under misspelled words, you'll want to make sure Word is
checking spelling as you type, or in your situation, is indicating suspect
words on an imported file.
 
Click the Office Button in the upper left corner
Click on Word Options, which appears on the bottom bar of the screen that
pops up
Choose Proofing in the left panel
Check the option that says "Check spelling as you type" under "When
correcting spelling and grammar in Word"
 
I recommend you uncheck the grammar checking in this same section, as you
don't need Word telling you it thinks the author used incorrect grammar.

Hi 
I scanned a document using OpenBook, saved it as a Bana 2003 document. (I
have 2007) The text came out fine, but the spell checker is off. How can I
put it back on to check the spelling? Would I have to wait until I import it
into Duxbury and check it from their?
Any help would be appreciated,
