Judith, we should do this off list. But I don't understand something. If
you have MS word and a spell checker, why do you want another one? Or am I
missing something here. I have Office 2002 Pro with MS Word. It has a
spell checker that installs with the program. So, why the need for another
one?
I'm a little confused. Jack
