Spell Checking Notes

To spell check a note in the Note Editor/Note Timer window, click the Spell Check button. The Check Spelling window appears.

If a word is not in the speller's dictionary, the word is highlighted and this window appears with alternative spellings in a Suggestions list and your text in the Not in Dictionary box.

Click Change to replace the word with the highlighted alternative in the list. Or, you can edit the word directly and click Change to replace the word your new text.

The speller uses a file called STD.DIC in the Abacus folder. Your added words are appended to a second dictionary called USER.DIC.

If the dictionaries are not in the current data directory, the speller will look to the folder where the executable program (Lawwin.EXE) is located. This lets multiple databases access the same dictionaries.
