turning spel-check on and off, strange happenings...

I know that spel-check can be turned on and off with a box at the bottom of a new email message.

I know that spel-check can be turned on and off with a drop-down menu at the top tool-bar of the new message window.

Is there any other way that spel-check can be disabled?

Mine quit working a few days ago.

I have closed the Bat and reopened it several times, and turned the computer off and on several times, and my Bat seems to have lost its spel-checker.

Very strange...

Has anyone else had this kind of experience, or knows of some other control-switch for the spel-checker?

In order to use the spell checker a language has to be selected. You wouldn't have unselected the language or tried to select a language (via a macro) that you haven't got on your system?

Thank you.  I had not thought of that.

I went and looked at Language, and American English shows as selected.

So, that's not it.

I opened up a message, and tried to spel-check it, and the first word, hello, was not in the dictionary.

I clicked on the dictionary button, and there does not seem to be a dictionary.

Maybe that's the problem...My dictionary went away into cyberspace Hell.

How do I retrieve my dictionary?

Download and install the internal pack from: http://www.ritlabs.com/en/products/thebat/download.php
Doesn't matter whether you're using the home edition or the pro edition.

As an alternative you might uninstall TB and install it again. (No settings will get lost.) Or when you don't use the most recent version you might install that on top of your old version.

There is no Internal pack that I can see at that web-page.

I see an International pack.  Did you mean that?

Yep, that's what you get when typing messages when you should be asleep. ;-)

I did that and The Bat still did not have any spel-checking capability.

After some pondering, I thought I should close the Bat and open it again.

The Spel-check was back!

Thank you.  You done good.

You can go to sleep now.....
