You can create a document of blank labels from that and use as a template.

Some of this was done by Greg Maxey. Take a look at his Add-Ins:

This was apparently fixed in release version 1908. Some people with earlier releases are still experiencing it.
I've updated the discussion.

@John
While I agree that this is the best way to access personal templates, you do have access to them without the classic dialog. This is discussed on my web page. Beginning with Word 2013, under File > Options > Save you can designate any folder as the default save location for new templates. You will have access to anything in that folder under File > New. You will also have access to any files in the folder set as Workgroup Templates. This involves more clicks.http://www.addbalance.com/usersguide/fileNew.htm#2013Changes

This has also been reported by Jay Freedman. in Eileen's Lounge.
http://www.eileenslounge.com/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=32231I am able to run the vba command in Safe mode with release 1903 Build 11425.20204.
However, even after online repair with fresh normal and no Add-ins it crashes when not in Safe mode as do keyboard shortcuts or QAT links. -

I've discovered a macro that works.
Sub SpellCheckDocumentClassic()
'Charles Kenyon 26 February 2019
Selection.range.CheckSpelling
Selection.range.CheckGrammar
End SubThis is working as of today in Version 1901.

Here is another thread showing problems from the new Editor interface!
https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/word-spell-check/27c61ca4-9874-4712-87d6-bedf54bc18baPlease, please, please, at least return the option to trigger it via vba.

Still not able to access it using the macro with Version 1901. This can't be that difficult!

Here is yet another forum post complaining about the Editor and inability to use the classic spell-check dialog.

As of December 21 - Release 1811 - the macro does not work
This is very frustrating!At a minimum, the Dialogs(wdDialogToolsSpellingAndGrammar).Show command should allow use of the old one. An option in Proofing Options would be even better! This should not be that hard!

David Lightstone. I do not understand. This is about using Word directly.
According to a post today, the macro to restore is not working in 1812.

The following macro by Stafan Blom appears to be working now. Release 1810.
Sub DisplayTraditionalSpellCheckDialog()
Dialogs(wdDialogToolsSpellingAndGrammar).Show
End SubIt can be attached to a keyboard shortcut.

The amount of space available has again been reduced in release 1903. See this discussion for screenshots: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/msoffice_word-mso_win10-mso_365hp/styles-pane-changed-again-word-365-1903/86600267-21e2-4e80-9dd6-bdb90ea8e6c2?tm=1554646915648

In a recent thread, I found that the preview of direct formatting in the styles pane has also been changed. Previews no longer show that direct formatting. They used to show the direct formatting.
This, also, should be restored.Charles Kenyon
commented
The styles pane is a power user/experienced user feature of Word. Here is at least one person who reverted to an earlier version because of these problems and is trying to figure out what to do for her corporation.
