Spell check she no work in HTML?
One of my users has complained that despite all settings being reasonable
(ToolsOptionsSpelling looks OK; and Word not ticked as default mail editor in ToolsOptionsMail Format ) spelling errors are never detected when he hits F7 to do a spell check when replying to an email received in HTML. Can I fix this? Suzanne answered a question last year suggesting that the spellchecker is switched off when one pastes something from the web--could this be related? |

Spell check she no work in HTML?
It is possible (and frequently seems to happen by accident) to format text
to not be checked for spelling. It is likely that the words not being checked are formatted for no proofing. To see if this is happening, open one of the documents and press Shift-F1. Then click on one of the misspelled words. Word will display the formatting applied to that Word (and the source of the formatting). If it says "no proofing" or "do not check spelling and grammar" you need to modify the language setting. Select your entire document (Ctrl-A) and use Tools Language to change the setting. I don't know of anything that does this automatically with web text. But that is simply ignorance. It could be that there is. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
