4.9 SPELL CHECKING YOUR WORK

Microsoft Word can correct any typing or spelling mistakes using its spell-checker and this saves a lot of time and effort. It has a dictionary of correctly spelled words. Although it is pretty good, it won't contain all the words and names you might throw at it. If you have typed a word not in the dictionary, Spell-Checker will show it as an error word, even though it is a correct name or post code but you can add your word or post code to the computer’s dictionary.

To spell-check, go to the start of the document by holding down the CONTROL and dabbing at the HOME key.

Press CAPSLOCK N to go to next spelling error. Then either press RIGHT CLICK (numeric keypad minus key) or press the Application key which is to the left of the right Control key. Then ARROW Down amongst the list of suggestions and press ENTER on the one you want or ARROW DOWN further to "ignore", "ignore all" or "Add to dictionary"

Press CAPSLOCK N to take you to the next error word and so on through your document. You will hear when there are no more errors.

If you have a laptop without an Application key or numeric keypad, try Shift F10.

If you don’t want to hear spellchecker’s options, you can press ESCAPE and edit the word.

You can also correct as you go along. When you hear a quack, press the LEFT ARROW key to get back into the error word and correct it manually.

The CAPSLOCK N routine works in all versions of Word, but not in email, Notepad, WordPad or other word processors.
