I'm working on a novel with a co-writer, and we use revision marking
extensively to make changes. I often right click on a particular sentence or paragraph and select Accept Changes from the shortcut menu. This is where the grammar part comes in. Because it is a novel, sometimes the grammar isn't always technically correct. If the sentence is being flagged for grammar at all, it won't even display the Accept Changes on the shortcut menu until I acknowledge the grammar problem by either fixing it or clicking ignore. I don't mind it flagging a sentence because it does make me look at the sentence, but I would find it helpful to have the program not force me to pay attention to an "Ignore Sentence" simply to be able to accept a revision. -- Linda Adams ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

Not unreasonable, though I have found the grammar checker so useless that I
don't bother with it. Note that you can to some extent customize what types of "errors" it will flag. -- Suzanne S.
