After opening an Microsoft RTF file with LO Writer, Spellcheck failed to indicate misspelled words, even if "F7 & Check document from beginning" were used. Spell check was compromised even after shutdown and restart. I found out that if a single RTF was opened, then all other documents opened after did not have spellcheck functioning. Partially resolved by re-configuring the Spellcheck. Spellcheck will work if activated, but misspelled words are not indicated even in ODF files previously created by LO. Possible the LO configuration is corrupted by opening the RTF file?
