Stedmans Spell Checker-How to Set it up in Spell check - Linnie


Posted: Dec 03, 2010

I just downloaded the Stedmans Spell Checker to work with my Word Documents, and I can't figure out how to make it work with Word. I went into Spell check, Options, and saw custom dic, but don't know where to go from there to set it up. Help please, and thank you!

someone who frequents the tech help board might know. - might ask there? NM

Did you have MS Word open when you downloaded and installed it? - SM

Because if you did, then it will not load correctly. You will have to unistall the Stedmans, then you have to make sure MS Word is not running and then run the install again.

Thanks for the tips, but I think I figured out my problem. I only purchased the dictionary, which probably didnt come with the spell checker.

Yeah, the spell checker is seperate from the dictionary. - SM

Which is really irritating when you think about it!

Opinions On Inductel Spell Checker

Help! Spell Check Issue.
Dec 04, 2009

Thanks for your help.  For some reason, my spellcheck is doubling twice.  For example, if I hit F7 in the report or even upload, it would highlight a word misspelled such as Treadmil (need the extra "l" at end of word).  Spellcheck will highlight word and replace.  Then it will state "Spellcheck complete" and will do it AGAIN. It will then change the "treadmil" word to not only right the first time by adding an extra "l", but will add ANOTHER "l" to spell TREADMILLL.  Ho ...

Spell Check Not Working Properly

Be careful with the spell check.  It is not working properly.  I just let something go through that I thought spell check would catch and I would fix it when I came to the end of the document.  I just realized that I let it go through and it never picked up my error.  :(  Also, did anyone else notice that when the new version 6.1 was installed some of your expansions were lost? This happened to me.  I lost many of my expansions. ...
