Disable Spell Check on the fly for exams

[Guest Tony Sharps]

Found it! just had some time to re-appraise this and have now found the

 

solution. Import the following into the registry on logon:

 

 

 

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Proofing

 

Tools\1.0\Override\en-US]

 

"dll"="c:\\temp\\dud.dll"

 

"lex"="c:\\temp\\dud.lex"

 

 

 

Assuming that you are using bespoke exam accounts that's all that you need

 

to do.
