It's tough sometimes catching all one's spelling errors or even reading threads from those who are dictionary challenged...is spell check a feature for the future on THR?

Easy work around is to write and proof your posts in word or note or whatever you have with active spelcheck. Then paste to the msg page.


Obviously, I don't do that much.

I asked the same question some time ago, seems like its possible but the software upgrade is expensive.

I open a new message in Outlook, copy & paste to check spelling there.

Don't use spell checkers. The only way to improve your spelling is to practice writing or typing words spelled correctly. Seeing the correct spelling for a microsecond before clicking OK will not help your spelling.

Usually, I only get confused at a few words. For those I hop over to www.dictionary.com and type in what I think, then I get a list of, "Did you mean...?" and click on the one that looks best.

How about something that checks grammar, too?
