Checking the Spelling

[ LiB ]

Excel has a built-in dictionary that it uses to check your worksheet for misspellings. This feature isn't infallible; if you type air instead of err, Excel probably won't be able to tell you that you're wrong. However, combined with good proofreading, spell check can be very helpful.

NOTE

Excel works best if you begin the spell check at the beginning of your worksheetcell A1.

Excel will highlight the cell with the first potential misspelling and suggest changes.

After you choose one of these actions, Excel will proceed to the next possible error.

When all potential mistakes have been identified, Excel will notify you that the spelling check is complete.
