Default Is there a program to fix sentence fragments?

Is there an automatic fragment sentence program that corrects this problem?

No, there is not such a program. Programs don't (at least yet) understand
the meanings behind natural language. They can identify a fragment because
it's incomplete, but they can't intuit what you meant in order to supply the
rest of it. Even people can't do that reliably, as you'd see if you read
these newsgroups regularly.
