Spelling and Dictionary

[aks_bama]

The spelling and grammar check tab in tools>optiona is not accessible to the 2 users in XP; the spell check doesn't work. The administrator has access to this tab and the spell check works. All on the same computer. Word from Office 97. XP-Home. I tried add/change program, the computer got hung up during the installation of "wordzap".

Pls help!

This is a problem with user registry permissions.

I have the same problem - but I'm running Office 2001 for MAC. How do I resolve these issues? It is causing much trouble, as I am not a very good spellar
