Thanks Susan. I had read your article when Googling the problem. For what ever reason I can't get it to work any time, open form, saved form, new form, what ever. Makes me real comfortable developing something in this mess that is supposed to work on a clients machine. I found a few refreces to tweaking some registry keys, but have not done that yet. -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Susan Harkins Sent: Tuesday, January 06, 2009 4:43 PM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: Re: [AccessD] Access 2007 spell check http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/10things/?p=376 It's not broke, but you can't always access it.
