Well, Ivan...if rebooting fixed it, then I have to say it was either resources or something else that was running that was no longer running after the reboot...OR a bad temp file that got deleted by Windows on reboot.

So, we re-booted the computer and it's working again. Why does this happen? I know why re-booting restores system resources, etc. But, spell check? Hmmm....Any ideas here? Thanks!
