I know this has been convered before and probably noone else has any 
interest in MW 5.0 anymore anyway so...please email responses.
Some friends of mine are having a problem with the MW 5.0 spell-checker.  
Whenever they invoke it and tell it to check the document, it promptly 
erases the document.  Not good.
Someone tested it with a file containing:
          The rain in Spaine falls mainly on the plain.
The checker came up and said Spaine was misspelled and then locked up 
(after erasing the document).
I recommended upgrading to MW II or some other word processor, but they (a 
university newspaper and yearbook staff) LIKE MW 5.0.
I remember this being discussed long ago on the net, but I don't remember 
the fix.
HELP!
Thanks.
