Checking Spelling


Checking Spelling as You Type

You can have the editor check spelling as you type. To turn on the spell-check-as-you-type feature, click the automatic spell check button( ).

When you click the button, the spell checker reviews every word in the file. A wavy red line ( ) appears under any word whose spelling is not found in the system's dictionary.

The spell checker continues to review each word as you type it, marking any words not in the dictionary.


Note

Depending on the speed of your computer, there may be a short delay between the time you type an incorrect word and when the wavy red line appears. Also, the spell check does not check a word until you enter a space character after the word.


Fixing Spelling Errors

There are two ways to fix a spelling error (indicated by a wavy red line).
