Re: Word 2007 spelling & grammar check

I knew we could eventually get to the bottom of it!

Was the date in a header or footer?

Hi Herb,
I did as you said and did get that error again.
When I did your second suggestion "Ctrl+F" it found the inserted date that I put in the doc from the date select page
"Thursday, June 28, 2007"
I guess that was the problem?
Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it.

To recreate the error, you need to reset the document's spelling as
un-checked. Office button - Word Options - Proofing tab, click Recheck
Document - Click Yes - Click OK. Now, press F7 to recheck the spelling.

If you're still getting the message that "Do not check..." areas were
skipped, then at least something somewhere in the document contains text
that's marked "Do not check". Since Ctrl+A doesn't select text in text
boxes, footnotes, endnotes, headers, or footers, you would need to check
those areas separately.

Try this:

1. Ctrl+F

2. Click the More button.

3. Make sure the Find what: box is empty.

4. At the bottom, click Format - Language, and put a check next to "Do not
check spelling or grammar". This tells Word to search for text --
anywhere -- that contains that attribute. Click OK.

5. Click Find Next.

If text is formatted that way... this should find it.

Have a good day,
