Apache OpenOffice 3 and 4 Text Document spell checker is ideal. After using Windows Office Word 97 for many years, with Word 97 spell checker corrections are limited to mostly five letter words, it is good to see a spell checker that provides many words with eight and more letter options. I don't need all the fancy options and "Save As" extensions provided by updated versions of Windows Office. Would like to see an auto correct option in Apache OpenOffice.
