Re: [libreoffice-users] Problem with spellcheck

Language can be set in several places - default for all documents, 
default for document, and also for paragraph. This only causes problems 
if you have more than one possible module (I have en-gb and ru in 
addition to en-us).

But if a spellcheck has completed with nothing happening then no 
language module has been chosen. Type F7 and there is a box at the top 
which says which language has been selected. If there is nothing there, 
then suggestion below will work.
