I'm using MS Office 2002, but a while back I downloaded the trial of
the later version & spelling & grammar did not work. Is this
deliberate on the part of MS?

 

[Tom Ferguson]

have never tried any of the trial versions that are available on-line.
however, I would be surprised if such an important feature were disabled.
After all, the idea of such a version offering is to show off the
applications best features.

No doubt there are some here who know for sure and will offer comment.

Are you saying that Spelling and Grammar in Office XP was fine until you
installed the trial of a newer version (Office 2003 or 2007?)? Then when you
went back to Office XP spelling and grammar was broken?
