Re: Spellchecking Email Was: one of the things I HATE

January 1, 2002

For folks using Outlook Express for email, you can use the Windows spellchecker.

Go to

Tools/Options, click on the Spelling tab and check the boxes you want.

> Val, I hate making those stupid mistakes when typing e-mails also, which is

why I usually just

delete rather than read my own posts. The other thing I hate is that the

macros, etc., won't work.

I was just typing to a friend and started to just type cp, but then remembered

that it would not

expand to chest pain.

want it to be correct

is to go ahead and type it in Word. Then copy it and paste it into the e-mail.

I don't tend to do

this, but it would be helpful, especially since I don't know of many e-mail

programs that have a

copy of Stedman's, so spellcheck can be a real pain in e-mail. Just my 2 cents.

> Do you all find yourself writing these emails, not having your Stedman's or a

quick correct

spellchecker there for you?....I hate writing emails that are long because when

I am typing in my

WP, things like teh automatically change to the, plus I get the red underline

when something is

spelled wrong...so then I write and send the email...and find a mistake and

think...oooooh....they

must think I'm an idiot...lol...anyway had to share that w/you all. Happy New

Year.
