Word should catalog misspelled words to study.
Word is not a typing application. Word does make it easier to work around
common typos, however. When you right-click on a word marked as misspelled, instead of selecting the correct spelling, you can click on AutoCorrect and choose the correct spelling. From then on, whenever you type, for example, "sotre" (one of my bugaboos), you'll get "store" automatically. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA Word MVP FAQ site: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. "rndthought" wrote in message ... For the purpose of becoming a better speller, Word should have the option to catalog misspelled words. Words that the user more commonly typed correctly can be treated as "mistypes" and removed from the list. Then one could come back to this list for further study. Maybe a simple interface that can a study list and does a spelling test type routine: Computer says the word, you type the word. Maybe even have a Typing Practice interface that takes the common mistypes and builds a practice routine to improve typing skills. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.
