WD98: Some Menu Items Not Available While Spelling Dialog Active (177577)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Word 98 Macintosh Edition
This article was previously published under Q177577 SYMPTOMS
Many options are unavailable (dimmed) if a menu is opened while the
Spelling And Grammar dialog box is active.
This behavior is different from Word 97 for Windows.
RESOLUTION
Click the mouse while the insertion point is inside the open document (this
places the insertion point in the document and makes it active). The focus
is transferred from the dialog to the document, and access is gained to the
commands that are normally available on the menus.
NOTE: To reactivate the Grammar And Spelling dialog after clicking in the
document, click the Resume button in the dialog.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products
listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem
and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it
becomes available.
