Microsoft word how do I turn on spell check? I need to check spelling and grammar!

Question Posted Tuesday October 26 2010, 12:15 pm

I have the latest microsoft word, and its very complicated. I just wanna know how to activate the thing that gives you spelling correction, when that red line appears when you spell something wrong or when you have grammar mistakes.

I have a very important project to do in like 6 hours, please help me.
