SUMMARY

When you install Microsoft Word for Windows NT, Word makes available to Windows 95 a spell-checking tool that you can access by clicking Options on the Tools menu. By default, all the options for the spell-checking tool are disabled.

The options for spell-checking in Word for Windows NT are:
  • Always suggest replacements for misspelled words.
  • Always check spelling before sending.
You can select certain words for the spell-checking tool to ignore:
  • Words in uppercase letters.
  • Words with numbers.
  • The original text in a reply or forward.

MORE INFORMATION

Microsoft Exchange for Windows 95 does not include a spell-checking tool. However, Microsoft Exchange can use any 32-bit spell-checking tool that is correctly registered. Microsoft Exchange cannot use 16-bit spell-checking tools unless they are written specifically for Microsoft Exchange.

The Microsoft Mail client also does not supply a spell-checking tool, but it can use any correctly registered spell-checking tool.
