I am using Trados 5 / Windows 2000 / Office 2000 Premium. For some reason spell check function in MS Word works fine (F7), but in Trados Workbench it does not work at all and in Trados Tag editor F7 function is gray out (or gray off)

What should I do?

Check spell check options in Tag Editor Nov 6, 2003

Hello Emilio,

I don't know if this will solve your problem but please ensure that Spell Checker is on in Tag Editor. To do so, in Tag Editor, go to Tools and choose Options. Go to the Spelling tag and check boxes as appropriate.

I have Trados 6 and use the spell checker this way.

Hope this helps

A possible solution Nov 6, 2003

Go to:
Tools/Plug-ins
Go to Spelling and select the options you prefer (It works on me selecting: Word spelling checkers)
I hope it will work now.
