If your document is protected it will not allow a spell
check to be done.
There is a macro you can set up to unprotect the form
check the document and then reprotect.
Here is the code for the Macro:
' If document is protected, Unprotect it.
If ActiveDocument.ProtectionType <> wdNoProtection Then
ActiveDocument.Unprotect Password:=""
End If
' Set the language for the document.
Selection.WholeStory
Selection.LanguageID = wdEnglishUS
Selection.NoProofing = False
' Perform Spelling/Grammar check.
If Options.CheckGrammarWithSpelling = True Then
ActiveDocument.CheckGrammar
Else
ActiveDocument.CheckSpelling
End If
' ReProtect the document.
If ActiveDocument.ProtectionType = wdNoProtection Then
ActiveDocument.Protect Type:=wdAllowOnlyFormFields, _
NoReset:=True
End If
