Thanks for your question.

I am not sure what you mean by "is not working". If the problem is that it spellchecks in the US-way, please go to Tools->options and then Language Settings->Languages and choose for Default language for documents in Western: English (UK).

If it is not available, you probably have to install the myspell language pack for GB (myspell-en-gb).

I hope this helps.
