Spell Check is turned off

I'm working with a database application which uses word documents for
reports.

If I open Word directly, everything works fine, and spelling is checked
automatically.

If I go into Word via this database application, the resulting document does
not check spelling. You need to highlight the entire document, select a
language, and finally it will check the spelling. I have checked the
Options screen, and nothing is different.

If I click the RECHECK key, the program finds some grammar problems
(green underline), but does not find spelling errors (red underline)

I talked to the database tech support. They say the document is a result of
a mail-merge, but they can't explain why spell-check is disabled.

I did a normal mail-merge, and the resulting document (merged document)
does not have spell-check disabled.

Any ideas??
Thanks,
John
