    I just wanted to play around with WPF SpellCheck a little, but although the Attached Property is set, there's no underlining of whatever I type.

    SpellCheck.IsEnabled="True"
    

    If I remember correctly, SpellCheck is supposed to add Menu Items to my ContextMenu as well, isn't it? That doesn't happen either...

    BTW, my machine is running .Net4.

    Do I have to enable this globally somewhere? All tutorials and so forth just mention setting SpellCheck.IsEnabled gets you going...

    Thanks, I just found out that it works when I add Language="en-US" to the Tag. That being said we will have to get the language pack! Thanks for your swift response =)
