yitzle Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 Word97. Why? Dunno...With the Admin account, everything works fine.With the other accounts (2, non-admin), the Spelling/Grammar doesn't work.F7 does not open a Spelling dialog, I see no Spelling... in the Tools menu and under Tools|Options, the tab labeled "Spelling & Grammar" is disabled (I can not open the tab).Any clues what's wrong and how to fix?Thanks!

mdolan Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 I take it this is running under W2K/XP? If so, this is because the security permissions are locked down which prevents word from using these features correctly.It's been a long time since I fixed this :-)Use the attached template with secedit:%SystemRoot%\system32\secedit.exe /configure /db %SystemRoot%\security\database\office97.sdb /cfg off97.infObviously I recommend that you read the template first before blindly applying it....Cheers,Mikeoff97.inf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yitzle Posted July 2, 2007 Author Share Posted July 2, 2007 Oops. Yes. XP.I'll try that out. Thanks for the reply.I got Admin rights on the machine (other account). Is there a GUI on top of secedit somewhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdolan Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 There is a GUI method (using MMC & then adding the Security Configuration and Analysis snap-in) and then finding the inf and then... etc etc etc.It's much easier just to run the command :-)Cheers,Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
