No, "What command initializes ...?" is correct.

The other form would be used in "What command does the keyboard
shortcut xxx initialize?"

Can you give an example of what you think is an incorrect article use
that Word did not mark?

Dear all
but it at least should find some of these errors in articles.
i found another maybe bug, the grammar checker can not find errors in
questions like
what command initializes ....?
must be
what command does initialize ....?

is it only in my system or its a bug?

best regards

Even linguistic scholars who specialize in the study of English have
not been able to fully describe the use of the articles in English, so
asking a computer program to get it right every time is really asking
too much.

Dear all
is it possible to check the right using of articles like "a" and "the" with
office 2007 spell and grammar checking.
My grammar and spell checkers work fine but only this is not working, i
select all options and tried it several times
