Yes, you can do this, of course. And I have this on my ToDo list already. But it's a little bit more than simply reporting an error: 1) the spell checker shouldn't be enabled when not functional - if no dictionaries are found 2) the spell checker may be functional, but not for the languages used in document - obviously it shouldn't report success on spell check then. An warning message would be appropriate. Stephan
