openoffice spellcheck, changing language problem

Hi, when I change language to english in the spellcheck dialog (F7) in openoffice writer, it goes back to norwegian for the next word. I tried to change standard language (in options) til english, but still this happens.
I have both openoffice-spell-en and openoffice-spell-no installed. and I can se that the english spellcheck is available.

Any solution to this?

Re: openoffice spellcheck, changing language problem

This may be by design, it uses the language that the word has been set to use. For example if you have four misspelled words on a line, but change the language for each one to different languages, when spell checking [F7] it will alternate between each language for each word.

So the best thing to do is set the language for the text. Format / Character / Font / Language
