Hi =?Utf-8?B?S2F0aWVhNDAz?=,

My document checks all spelling but the text in a text box or table. How do

By default, it should do this... Is this only the "red squiggles", or does F7
also not work? If F7 doesn't work, does Word give you a message? Which version
of Word?

If you select the text in a textbox or table, then go to Tools/Language/set
language, then make sure the checkbox about not performing the spell and
grammar check is NOT activated, does the spell check work as you'd expect?
