shouldn't Grammar Checking in Word 2003 catch this word transposition
That's really a pretty subtle syntactic flaw, recognisable only by reference
to the semantics. "Will" can be a transitive verb, and "find" can be a noun;
to a human they are an unlikely combination, but a grammar checker has no
notion of meaning, only structure.
"in the diamond exploration business you will hear about a loss more often
than you will a find..."
The settings for the grammar checker are on Tools Options Spelling and
Grammar. The choice of document type is no longer provided, I think.

Hi,
I was hoping that Word 2003's Grammar Checking would catch this error:
You will a find hierarchical menu.
and propose correcting it to:
You will find a hierarchical menu.
But it did not.
Any suggestions?
And I seem to recall that Word used to let me set the type of document being
written or checked (scientific, informal, etc.). but I can't find that
setting.
Any suggestions?
thanks,
-john
