650 page document won't spell check
Please help. I downloaded a 650 manuscript from the on-line publisher

Ellen the Author You may have the wrong language applied to the text, or you may have "do not check spelling" turned on. See http://www.word.mvps.org/MacWordNew/Spell-Check.htm (although it's in the Mac section, the advice is the same for Windows versions of Word). The conversion of hyphens to dashes is one of the AutoFormat As You Type options (in the Tools AutoCorrect dialog). Make sure it's turned on. See http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Format...AutoFormat.htm. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |
