Appendix C: Using the Spell Check Utility
Check-Spelling Dialog
The Check-Spelling Dialog appears if a word requiring your attention is detected after you invoke
spell checking. You can use the dialog to specify whether the word should be ignored or replaced.
The labels of some buttons and text boxes in the dialog change according to the context.
Add
Click to add the reported word to the dictionary selected in the Add Words To list. Use the add
button if a correctly spelled word you use often is reported as a misspelling (e.g., your family
name). If the word is not used frequently, you may want to select the Ignore or Ignore All
buttons instead. This button is enabled only if a user dictionary has been selected in the Add
Words To list.
Add Words To
Select from the list to indicate to which user dictionary words will be added when you select
the Add button. The Add Words To list shows all user dictionaries currently open.
Cancel
Stops the current spelling check.
Capitalization
Appears if you use an uncapitalized word that exists in the dictionaries in capitalized form
only. You can edit the word in this box or select a suggestion from the list, then click the
Change button to correct the word, or press the Ignore button to skip the word.
Change
Use to replace the reported word. If the problem word was edited, the edited word is used as
the replacement. Otherwise, the selected suggestion is used as the replacement. Only this
occurrence of the reported word is replaced. If you want this and all following occurrences of
the word replaced, select the Change All button.
Change All
Use to replace this and all following occurrences of the reported word. If the problem word
was edited, the edited word is used as the replacement. Otherwise, the selected suggestion is
used as the replacement. If you want only this occurrence of the word to be replaced, use the
Change button. If the reported word is one you frequently misspell, you might consider
adding it to a user dictionary. You can display the Dictionaries dialog by selecting the
Dictionaries button.
Consider Changing
Contains a word which may be misspelled or otherwise incorrect, and presents a candidate
replacement word. You can change the word by selecting the Change button, or skip it by
selecting the Ignore button.
Delete
Click to remove the word from the text. This button appears when a doubled word has been
detected, or when the contents of the problem-word box are deleted.
