Disabling Formatting Consistency Checker has no effect whatsoever

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I would prevent Word never to use the blue underline again?

(The checkbox shown is the one in Word Options/ under the header Editing Options)

Cheers,

Kevin

EDIT: Solved. It seems like this article is quite misleading http://support.microsoft.com/kb/284956/en-au

The blue wavy line DOES NOT indicate that the Format Consistency Checker is active.

It indicates that capitalisation is the issue.


Turn off the "Use contextual spelling" option, and possibly also "Mark grammar errors as you type," at File tab | Options | Proofing.
