Just to clarify things...

Do you mean that users with User Access security level cannot use the Spell
Checking feature in Office products, ever?

If this is the case, talk to the IT people, they screwed up somewhere down
the line... I have never heard that spell checking availability had something
to do with PC security... The only way I see that there migth be a connection
is the custom dictionnary. It might be possible under some scenarios that
users with limited access not be allowed to create a custom dictionnary, but
spell checking itself should be available.
