Pity about that Susan, I often wonder why they change things that work, It

I haven't come across the spell system, But my son-in-law is giving me an i
phone so I may find out something I am looking forward to the challenge!!

hi mike,

this also works for me but I have to right arrow first to get it to work, 
otherwise it just goes in to that option to spell.
