Word's spell-checker helps tell you whether or not you have a recognized
word. It doesn't tell you if it is the right word (or if there might be a
better word).
Word's grammar checking misses major gramatical errors and yet gives many
false positives. I usually keep it turned off.
Those are the available tools.
I find that I spot many more errors reading a paper copy than I do online.
