Word doesn't even recognize mispelled words when I have "check spelling as you type" boxed checks in the proofing options. I've even purposely mispelled words inside tables and they don't show as mispelled.

i can't reproduce this behavior. When i type into tables, it checks the spelling. Do you have an example to show us ? – JMax Jun 22 '11 at 13:28

Try selecting your entire table, then click the Language button in the statusbar and make sure that "Do not check spelling and grammar" is not checked.

That works for just one table, but my document has multiple tables, over 100. So I'd have to select each table? That's not very efficient. – JP8 Jul 8 '11 at 16:20
It worked for me on multiple tables. I needed to set the language to English from the language tab and uncheck the "Do not check spelling and grammar". It was a bit of a pain, but it worked. – Adam Feb 28 at 20:36
