I do not understand the difference between 2 functions of the Grammar
Checker. They seem identical to me when I proofread a word document. Nobody
could give me a clear answer until now (MOS expert certified, general user,
etc.) Can you help?

Office Help Definition
Ignore Once: Clicking Ignore in Word causes the spelling checker to ignore
that instance of the word permanently. In Word, you can make the spelling
checker find ignored words again.

Next Sentence: No definition available or found

My expertise when I apply both function in to copy of the same text

Ignore Once = does not correct the mistake, removes the wavy green underline.
The mistake does not reappear when I perform a new spell check (unless to
recheck the document)

Next Sentence = does not correct the mistake, removes the wavy green
underline.
The mistake does not reappear when I perform a new spell check (unless to
recheck the document)

Consquently I do not understand where/what is the pratical difference
between these functions and when use one or the other.

Thanks for a little clarity,

Von Stussi

Next Sentence does exactly what it says. It will not check further grammar
errors in the same sentence but go on to the next one Many times that will
have the same effect as pressing Ignore Once.

Yes, I know that, but what I do not understand is why two different functions
(with a different name) serve exactly the same purpose.

I am probably missing something.

Hi Von Stussi,

There could be more than one grammar 'issue' within a single sentence, espcially if you have your settings looking at both grammar
and writing style

The ignore once setting skips a single issue. Next sentence skips all remaining issues in the sentence.

For example if you turn on all of the [Settings] in

Word 2003: Tools=Options=General
Writing Style: Grammar & Style

or in
Word 2007: Office Button=Word Options=Proofing
Writing Style: Grammar & Style

and then type in a new document

Wouldn't you like to have done this later?

with two spaces between the first two words, and you then use F7 to check the grammar, what you should see if you click on 'Ignore
once' a 2nd suggestion for change in the the same sentence. If you cancel at the point where the 2nd suggestion is made then hit F7
again and choose next sentence you'd bypass both the 1st and 2nd suggestion.
