Appendix C: Using the Spell Check Utility
You can enter more than one word in the Other Word box, but the total length should be
limited to 63 characters.
Remove File
Click to close the currently selected dictionary file. Closed dictionaries are not checked during
a spelling check. Although the file is closed, it is not deleted. Closed dictionary files can be
later reopened using the Add File button.
Words
Contains the list of words in the currently selected user dictionary.
Options Dialog
You can use the Options Dialog to specify various spelling-checker options. These options affect
the way the spelling checker operates.
Ignore Capitalized Words
When enabled, any words beginning with a capital letter are ignored (i.e., are skipped over
without being checked). You might enable this option if the text being checked contains many
proper names.
Ignore All-Caps Words
When enabled, any words containing all capital letters are ignored (i.e., are skipped without
being checked). You might enable this option if the text being checked contains many
acronyms.
Ignore Words with Numbers
When enabled, any words containing embedded digits are ignored (i.e., are skipped without
being checked). Examples of such words include Win95 and Q4. You might enable this option
if the text being checked contains many code words or other symbols containing digits.
Ignore Words with Mixed Case
When enabled, any words containing an unusual mixture of upper- and lower-case letters are
ignored (i.e., are skipped without being checked). Examples of such words include
MicroHouse and CapsLock. You might enable this option if the text being checked contains
many variable names or other symbols which use case changes to distinguish words.
Ignore Domain Names
When enabled, any words that appear to be Internet domain names (such as wintertree-
software.com) are ignored (i.e., are skipped without being checked).
Report Doubled Words
When enabled, any word appearing twice in a row is reported via the Check-Spelling
DialogCheck.SpellingDialog>Main.
Case Sensitive
When enabled, a distinction is made between capitalized and non-capitalized words. For
example, canada is considered different from Canada, so canada would be reported as a
misspelling. When the option is disabled, canada and Canada are considered identical. The
performance of the spelling checker will be reduced if this option is disabled.
