MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

A word flagged by the spelling checker may not be displayed entirely in the spelling checker text window.

This problem occurs most often when Options “show line breaks:” is set to Yes and the text of the document is formatted for a small font. If the flagged word is near the end of a line, the spelling checker will only highlight the portion of the word that appears in the spelling checker text window.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word versions 5.0 and 5.5. We are researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.

= MORE INFORMATION =

Although the word is partially highlighted in the spelling checker text window, the spelling checker does show the entire flagged word in its diagnostic window.
