SYMPTOMS
When you double-click the Spelling icon on the Status bar, the Format shortcut menu appears instead of the Spelling shortcut menu.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs when you spell check a selection that contains a combination of text immediately followed by the result of a field code, without a space separating the two.

When you double-click the Spelling icon on the Status bar, Word selects the first misspelled word. When there is no space between the text and the field code, the text and the field code are treated as one word.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95, version 7.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.



WORKAROUND
Insert a space between the text and the field code.
