Office 2000/Office XP 2003

I finally got a myself a 3-in-one copier/printer/scanner. So I wanted something more than Notepad or even Wordpad, so first I go out to get Office 2000 so I could use its Word,`cos Word 2000 has a spelling and grammar checker.

Well, the spelling check worked, but the grammar check didn't. So then I go and get Office XP 2003,`cos I thought maybe its grammar checker will work... it doesn't either. I asked the sales-people why isn't either 2000 and 2003 working and if there's a setting that makes the grammar-checker work... they don't know.

I would purposely use terrible grammar, like say... "I to store the to go need" and neither version would correct it. I did the same thing at the library's computer, which they only have Word 2000 installed, and it corrected it. So does anyone know why neither one of the Words (2000 and 2003) aren't working? If not, then Office XP 2003 is going back on the shelf.

Well, never mind and thanks anyway! I figured it out. Those sales-people ought'a trade jobs with me. I seem to know some things.

It had to purposely mis-spell and then right-click to get the drop menu and then click on Spelling, then Options, then change it from Grammar Only to Grammar and Style. And... I didn't use the manual.

Thanks!
