Correcting Spelling and Grammar
Does word have any kind of option where it corrects ALL grammar
irregularities and spelling besides the average spell checking option? If so where can I find it? |

Correcting Spelling and Grammar
There is no feature that automatically "corrects" grammatical errors (and
you wouldn't want this), but "Check grammar as you type" or "Check grammar with spelling" will mark or find what Word considers to be grammatical errors. Is this what you're referring to? If not, can you elaborate on what it is you want? -- Suzanne S.

Correcting Spelling and Grammar
Thanks so much for your reply. Actually I was looking for some kind of
proofreading or editing option. You see I have to sometimes proofread/edit papers and it takes up so much of my time! I was hoping if Word had some kind of option besides the spell checker to help me with this. I've noticed that this option can't find all the grammatical irregularities. If Word does't have this kind of option is there some kind of software or program that you can recommend? "Suzanne S.

Some things just cannot be done by machines. I wish housecleaning wasn't in
that category. :-( -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...

Agreed. Even a maid couldn't work around our clutter, much less a Roomba.
