Paul,
	I have also had this problem.  It seems to develop when I was quickly
clicking on "Ignore, etc." whenever a technical word came up that I knew was
correct.  I discovered that if I slowed down (not a fix--who wants to slow
down on a computer--even 33 MHz computers are still too slow....), then the
screen update occured correctly and I could see the context.  What I would
like to see from MSoft is to have the windows (spelling and document) separate,
so that I can move the doc. window up/down to see the whole context.  Any
one know if this is in the plans for Win 3.1 (whenever it becomes available)?
