When typing texts in different languages using OpenOffice.org, one should select the language of the document before the typing, that is "Tools --> Options --> Language Settings --> Languages" and then save the document. When you begin typing, OOo will check the spelling of the selected (i.e. used for the typing) language.

You can also set the language at Format>Character>Font or right-mouse-click>Character>Font. People on the OpenOffice forum will tell you that you should set up different styles and even different templates for different languages.

Of course, this may be useful if you have paragraphs in different languages within a document.
