I've tried turning on the automatic spelling and grammar checker via the
proofing options. For some reason it can only show grammar errors (green
squigly line) yet it cannot show spelling errors (red squigly line).

If I then select the check spelling and grammar option it only checks the
grammar. I've fiddled around with how checking every box I can try in the
proofing options but nothing seems to work!!!!

It's really doing my head in, having word but it won't correct any spelling
mistakes.

Any help would be gratefully received.

In the Proofing category of Office button | Word Options, make sure "Check
spelling as you type" is selected in Word Options, and that "Hide spelling
errors..." is cleared.
