That's great news, well, at least you're up and running and we have
determined area of the problem.

Sorry for the trouble. I'm passing this onto our spellchecking area owner
for further investigation and follow-up.

Thanks,


Curt

to be more accurate: I cannot even using the spellchecker manually with
the IT Pro layout: Word crashes instantly.

Solution (for italian version):

remove italiangrammar.proofingtool file and then start word.

Hope Microsoft release a patch for this file.

bye

How do you disable it? There are advantages to being able to tag the
text as Italian and just have the spellchecker ignore it because the
proofing tool isn't there, I should think. But I can't remember what you
mean by disable.

I mean simply disabling real-time spellchecking in Word options
