Isn't it just download the open office dictionary file. Open office ought to have registered the extension such that Windows know how to handle and install it.

Lars, thank you for the help.
It worked perfectly.

PS: I have a similar problem with the Open Office editor.
Do you know where I can find the instructions in this case?

Thanks again for your help,
Avner Peleg

Basically you need a file from OpenOffice (as the have great dictionaries), that file has to be decompressed (it is a zip with a strange extension), and you have to copy two files to a specific folder.

(not tested on the very latest TW)

Hello!

I have just installed the Tex Live package today on
my laptop, which operates with Windows 7.

It looks like everything is working fine, except for the spell-checking in the TeXworks editor. When I choose the spelling option it only gives the option "none" and do not allow a spell-check. When I go to TeXworks preferences, it also gives me "none" under spell-check language.

I would appreciate any information and/or advice you can give me for solving this problem.

Thank you,
Avner Peleg
