Spelling

Once the entire matter has been typed and formatted as required, now is the time to make sure that no spelling mistakes have been made. Spelling is one of the coolest features of Word and frees you from the bother of concentrating on the spelling of your text.

• Place the cursor right in the beginning of the document to ensure that the complete document is spell checked. (Although even if you place the cursor anywhere in the middle, Spelling features will prompt you and start from the beginning)
• Choose Spelling and Grammar command from the Tools menu.
• A Spell Check dialogue box appears. The spell check program immediately starts picking up each word in your document and searching that word in its dictionary. If the word is found in the dictionary, the program moves on to the new word till it finds a word, which does not exist, in its in-built dictionary. At this stage this dialogue box will prompt you with the word, which is not in Dictionary, and ask you what you wish to do now. The program would close when spelling has been completed on the entire document.

Explanations for some of the options in the spell-check program are given below:
