Mechanism of work
When an error occurs in the text, Word will underline it with a red, blue, or green line. The red line is used to fix spelling errors. Punctuation deficiencies are indicated with a blue line, and grammatical errors are indicated with a green squiggly line. To view possible spellings and corrections of a mistake, right-click on a word or phrase.
If you accept the proposed Word option, select it by clicking on the appropriate menu item. Word will automatically correct the error and remove the underline. If you think that there is no mistake in this place in the text and the word is spelled correctly, you can ignore the underline or click on the "Skip all" context menu, which is also available by pressing the right mouse button.
AutoCorrect
You can also activate the AutoCorrect feature, which is available in Office programs. This parameter allows you to automatically correct misspelled words in accordance with the list manually created by the user. There you can add words that cause you spelling problems.
To enable auto-substitution, go to the "Options" - "Spelling" - "AutoCorrect options" section. Check the "Replace as you type" checkbox. In the "Replace" field, specify the words or phrases that make you difficult to write. In the left column, write the misspelled word, and on the right, write the correct spelling. After adding a sufficient number of words and phrases, click "OK" and save the changes made.
When writing an article, the word editor Word underlines words, thereby indicating grammatical or punctuation errors. If a word is misspelled and already exists in the program dictionary, the word will be replaced (if autocorrect is enabled). There are cases when you need to check the spelling in Word, but autocorrect is not enabled and the program does not underline words with mistakes at all. In this case, consider how to check the document for errors in words and punctuation.
Setting up automatic text checking
For places with spelling and grammatical errors to be underlined automatically, you need:
- Go to the "File" tab and click on "Options";
- Select "Spelling" in the left pane of the new window;
- In the area "When correcting the spelling of Word" put a check in the boxes "Check spelling while typing", "Use ... spell check", or "Mark grammar errors ...";
- You can put a checkmark in all the boxes of this subsection, since all the listed variations will help you work with the text.
Attention! If Word has ceased to underline errors with a red line, then be sure to uncheck the boxes in the "File Exceptions" subsection. Go to "File" - "Options" - "Spelling" and finally "Exception for file". Uncheck the lines "Hide spelling and grammatical ... in this document."
After this setting, the document will emphasize not only spelling oversights, but also punctuation.
How to enable automatic error checking
Thanks to this function, you can easily fix all errors at once. You can enable "Check spelling and grammar in the text" by pressing F7 or go to the "Review" tab - in the "Spelling" section - click on "Spelling".
A new window will open and the first mistake made will pop up. You can correct it directly in the "Not in the dictionary" area, or specify the desired form in the "Variants" section and click replace.
Attention! MS Word cannot automatically correct punctuation marks. Therefore, if there is a green or blue wavy line throughout the entire text, you will need to make changes yourself, that is, manually. Moreover, the program makes hints after which word the comma is missing.
Next, a new window will pop up with a new error, and this will continue until all errors are fixed. After all the changes, a window will pop up notifying you that the spell check is complete, click on "Ok".
Next Word will provide readability statistics. We hide this notification by clicking on "Ok".
Manual error checking
Underlining with a red line means that the word is probably misspelled or a phrase that is unfamiliar to Word and is not included in the dictionary. You can easily fix errors manually as follows:
1) Click on the highlighted word with the right mouse button and select the correct option in the window that opens.
2) Add a new word for Word to the program dictionary. Right-click on the wrong word and select "Add to Dictionary" and the underline will disappear. With further use of this word, the underline will not appear.
3) Find at the bottom of the program Word, a book with a cross (if there are errors) and click.
The correct spelling options will appear, you need to specify the correctly spelled word.
How to set up the "Autocorrect" function
The "AutoCorrect Word" feature is very useful, as there are typos in words during fast typing. This function will help to correct an incorrectly written phrase automatically, for this you need to make the following settings:
1) By clicking on the "File" section, select "Options";
2) In the pop-up window on the left side, find "Spelling", in the "AutoCorrect Options" section, click on the "AutoCorrect Options ..." button;
3) In the "AutoCorrect" section, check the box next to "Replace as you type";
4) Add a phrase that is often printed incorrectly. For example: enter "helper" under the field "replace" as an incorrect option, and under the field "to" enter the correct word form and click on "Add". As shown in the picture below.
You can add any phrase and indicate its correct spelling. It can also be an abbreviation for everyday phrases, an abbreviation or the name of hot keys in English. Here are some examples:
How to change a phrase in the AutoCorrect list
You need to scroll through the entire list and find the desired phrase, select it so that it appears in the "replace" field and in the "by" field. 
Now all that remains is to place the mouse cursor in the desired field and enter your own spelling of a symbol or phrase, replace and save. Let's look at an example. To quickly write the symbol (s) in the form "@", you first need to add and indicate which symbol will be replaced.
The actions are standard as before when adding a new phrase. File - Options - Spelling - AutoCorrect Options. In the section where "AutoCorrect" under the "replace" field - enter "(a)", and in the "on" field - write "@". Add and click "OK".
Now is the time to check. We print the desired fragment of the article and write "(a)" (in the picture below), the replacement with "@" occurs after pressing the ")" of the final character.
Working with Word will become much easier if you make all the settings for autocorrect different phrases. Just imagine that you can type (Moscow State University) in one second just by writing three letters "MGU". Thanks to certain options, the user will be able to make an automatic check for the correct placement of punctuation, very quickly, given that it will take a long time to view a document of 10 A4 sheets manually. V in this case we are talking about using the "Spelling" option in the "Review" section.
Spelling checker is used in Microsoft Office suites to solve the problem of numerous typos, as well as spelling and punctuation errors that are often encountered when a person enters various information from the keyboard. At the same time, the spell checker helps to visually point out flaws in the text so that the user can correct them.

How to set up the Word program
Regarding the spell checker, Word is configured very clearly and responds quickly to all changes in the setting.
I understand that you have already tried to check the boxes in the Options dialog box, which opens in the Tools menu; (Service-Parameters-DO Parameters).
There is a tab Spelling and the topmost checkmark here should be - Automatically check spelling.
It works very clearly: you turn it on - checks it (underlines with a red wavy line), turn it off - it doesn't check.
Try it on-off check. If it does not work for you, it means that there was some kind of failure in the Word. The best thing is to reinstall the Word.
Also look at the second checkmark - Do not highlight words with errors. This checkbox should not be present here. If you put it, the check will continue, but the words will not be highlighted with a line.
Also look at the field Set of rules in the same window. I have For business correspondence . If you have something else, then put it as it is with me.
Look also at the part of the window below where Grammar is written. There should also be ticks in Check grammar automatically and Also check spelling.
But I personally think that it was your Vord that flew out. Maybe they downloaded voluminous documents or copied large texts with pictures from the Internet, or from PDF. It happens there in these texts they cheat with formatting and structure that the Word crashes.
It also happens that a crash occurs if a Word-2007 document (or even later versions) is opened in Word-2003. Then everything starts to glitch right away.
In the program itself, you need to select Options - Spelling. There you select the checks you need and put a checkmark. If it does not work, try restarting the program and, at worst, reinstall it. There is another option to go to the Internet. There are many online resources that check the spelling of texts. This way you can compare the differences with your program.
Word has limited functions. If only the spelling of individual words. And in order to find stylistic errors, such a program has not yet been created and is unlikely to be created. At least I did not find such programs when I worked as a copywriter. Our mighty Russian language is too rich. If the word sabaka Word emphasizes it, then everything works and you do not need to insist. And if it suddenly stops doing this, then you need to look at the settings that you yourself indicated. If the checkboxes are in the right places, but the errors are not corrected, then you will have to reinstall the Word, because there was a failure.
In automatic mode, all spelling errors will be found in Word, if you do
Press Officequot ;, select Word Options ;. A dialog box opens in which Spelling is selected.
A check mark is set on Automatically check spelling, which is in When correcting spelling in Word.
Unchecked in the section Exceptions
To save the changes, click on okay. More details of all options can be found here.
Punctuation Word will also check if you do this
You open the section Reviewing, click Spelling.
Under the Review section, here's what else you can do
If, for some reason, there is no automatic spell check, then you need to go to the settings for Word and check the settings related to spelling.
To do this, click on the button that has the Office logo. This button is located in the upper left corner. After that, in the pop-up window, you must click the button called Word Options ;.
My spelling is very easy to check - open the Review tab and immediately select the Spelling item.
If Word does not highlight errors, then most likely they are either not there, or this very spell check is disabled. The easiest way is to press F7 and implement it by configuring the necessary parameters.
To do this, you need (for Word):
Click the Office Button, click Word Options,
click Spelling,
for the current document:
in the Exceptions for section, select the Name of the current file,
select or clear the Hide spelling errors in this document and Hide grammatical errors in this document check boxes.
For subsequent documents:
in the Exception section for select All new documents,
select or clear the Hide spelling errors in this document or Hide grammatical errors in this document check boxes.
Spell checking is one of those features that would have been the envy of writers of yesteryear, and even text operators working with typewriters. After all, now there is no need to be so careful not to make a mistake, because of which you will have to reprint an entire page. And in a fit of inspiration, you can completely forget about all the rules of punctuation, grammar and spelling. The computer will fix everything. The main thing is not to forget to give him this command.
By default, Word has automatic spell checking turned on. At the bottom of the screen, you have 2 indicators: the first one shows whether there are errors in the text or not, showing, respectively, a check mark or a cross. The language of the dictionary used for checking is displayed next to it.
In order to disable or make sure that the check is enabled, click on the language, in this case " Russian"And put a tick in front of" Don't check spelling". This is how easy it is to get rid of useful but depressing underscores in text.
The same operation can be done by clicking on the tab “ Peer review", In chapter " Language"Click on the item" Language"And choose" Spell checking language ... "
The program is smart enough to independently determine which language you use in the document, even if there are phrases in different sentences in one sentence, but for this you need to make sure that there is a check mark next to “ Detect language automatically».
Additional spelling settings are available at the following address: " File» -> « Parameters» -> « Spelling". The first and second sections are responsible for exceptions and replacement rules. And in the third " When correcting spelling inWord»You are free to turn off the automatic check function directly.
An important feature of Microsoft Word is the ability to connect third-party spell checkers. They are designed to provide more in-depth validation and detailed definitions of grammar rules. However, both the built-in capabilities and the dictionaries in Microsoft Word do a great job with the major languages.
Also, you, as a user, have the opportunity to independently supplement and improve your dictionary. To do this, in case of an error with which you do not agree, you can simply right-click on the word and press “ Add to dictionary". Subsequently, this phrase will not be considered an error.
In Word 2003, you can turn the automatic spell checker on and off at " Service» -> « Parameters"-> tab" Spelling"-> first section" Spelling» -> « Check spelling automatically».
