I can't underline Misspelled Words in Red Automatically only lately!

My Spellcheck has always worked perfectly in Open Office Writer and
underlined the words in Red when I'm typing a Document! Now; it suddenly
stopped doing that! PLEASE HELP!
                                   Thank you, Suzanne Klee!

Normally it underline only words that aren't in the dictionary of the 
language you have selected.

Do you mean that non of the words are underlined in Red any more? That 
could mean that you past the test and have all words correct.

Just in case all words are underlined the following instructions will 
cure the problem.

Start by renaming your OpenOffice user profile.

As you are using Windows close OpenOffice and the Quickstarter. Open File
Explorer. Copy and paste %appdata%\OpenOffice\4 in the File Explorer (sometimes called Windows Explorer) Address Bar and press Enter. Rename the "user" folder - "user.old" is a
good choice. Start OpenOffice.
