The Speller Type option only appears when more than one Spell Checker has been installed on your system. You may need to close Word and reopen Word to put the new speller in memory.

You may also need to select the other options under Spelling that you wish to use. Sylvan does not set those options for you.

9) The Sylvan installation is now complete and you can switch back and forth between the installed Spell Checkers (should you ever want to) by just selecting the Speller Type of your choice. Sylvan Spell Checkers also include a Modern English Language Dictionary.

Installation Troubleshooting :::::::::::::::::

Generally, installation of the Spell Checker is trouble free. However, there are a couple of issues that can sometimes cause problems, mostly having to do with the security settings for your system. Sylvan respects your security measures and the installer takes no actions to alter them.

1) The installer must write some values to your system Registry to tell Word that the Speller is available for use. Be sure that you have full Administrator privileges on your system during installation.

2) Some system security software, when properly doing its job, can prevent the installer from writing the necessary Registry entries and even prevent the writing of needed system files. You may want to disable such software for the few minutes it takes to install the Spell Checker. If you are connecting to the Internet through a proxy server, be sure that the proxy firewall and content screening permit connection to the Sylvan server.

3) Product registration via the Internet can sometimes be blocked by Firewall software. If you are using a Firewall you will need to allow the "InstallShield Setup Engine" to have access to the net, for just a few moments, during both installation and uninstallation.

4) During installation you may receive an alert regarding a cookie. This is a session tracking cookie only and contains no personal nor tracking content and should be allowed.

5) The "Demo" mode of this software does not run properly except when you are logged into your system as Administrator.

6) Restricted Users on Windows 2000 and Windows XP Professional editions may not find the Medical Speller type available in the Tools/Spelling options page. This can often be corrected by granting "Full Control" permissions to the Restricted User account for the following Registry Key:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Proofing Tools\Spelling

Product Authorization Notes :::::::::::::::
