in text tool on the info bar towards the right there is a button with ABC and a blue tick - click on this and you should see an option to check spelling as you type

this is ver 19 - but i don't think pro+ is different

[DavidDB]

You are indeed correct - my problem is its not working - Check spelling is indeed ticked

that I cannot help you with, sorry... hopefully someone else will

David - Does this happen if you open an new document?

And the catch all for odd things happening — or not happeninig — is close the program, then right click on the program icon and select Run as Administrator. You only need do this once and it will either work or it won't. But always worth a shot.

Same area, check your document has a Document language set.

Did you see Acorn's post just before this one?

[DavidDB]

Interesting I never knew there was a language setting for a document (or how to find it) lol

So are you good to spell check again?
