[Issue 126347] New: Spellcheck does not work

https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126347

          Issue ID: 126347
        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: Spellcheck does not work
           Product: Writer
           Version: 4.0.1
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows 7
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: editing
          Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
          Reporter: vdel67@gmail.com

I created a new document and wrote five pages.  I do Edit - Select All and hit
the Spellcheck button and it quickly returns 'The spellcheck is complete' and
finds no errors, yet I intentionally added some.

I saw posts that said a language has to be set, so I set the language to
ENGLISH (USA) and retried.  No good.  So I toggled "Tools - Options - Writing
Aids - Hunspell Spellchecker", but that didn't fix it.

I cannot get Spellcheck to work.  I would upgrade to a later version if there
is a specific fix for this, but I don't see one listed.

There are MANY complaints about spellcheck not working in this.  Can this
please be addressed?  Thank you in advance!

--- Comment #1 from Keith N. McKenna <kn...@apache.org> ---
The usual starting point for spellchecker problems is to delete or rename the
OpenOffice user profile. Doing this sorts out a very large proportion [read:
most] of OpenOffice stability problems. Details of how to do this are given in
