David Voelker inquires:

>checker's functionality without having to re-install Word from >scratch?

You can choose Customize in the Installer, and choose to just install Spelling
(or most any combination of components), just like it says in the manual.

This brings to mind Swaine's Flames Brain Games in Dr Dobb's June 92

The acronym part of the Brain Games:
RTFM
RTFS
RTFB
RWFM? TFRM, TFUM, OTFG-SM?
IAEF, RTFM
YWTFS/WRSN&IWTFMASAP
IRTFM&ISCUTFS/W
ICRTFM; T1WWTFS/WWTFM2
FTFM&FU2
RWFM? TJOS, TKR, OTKS?

The anagram part of the Brain Games:
MAGIC LAND OF LOST TRIBES <=> Bill Gates and Microsoft

REAL FRIEND OR NUTS?
