    The problem is probably in the length of the document. Spell Check wants to check the entire document but a large document could exceed memory requirements. You could play around with Virtual Memory (swap space on your hard disk) but the faster work-around for this problem is selecting a page for Spell Check to check. It will mean that after page 80, you type a page then Spell Check that page. Repeat the process to the end of the ducoment.
