- Just wanted to know if anyone has successfully used the Word 5.1a
- spellcheck feature under Executor?
-
- I'm having a lot of problems with it. First of all, it's really slow.
- Well, okay, it is slow even when I run it on a real Mac. The way I fixed
- this was to turn "always suggest spellings" off -- I guess the word
- suggestion algorithm is a slow one. But I can't do this under Executor,
- because whenever I try to change the settings in the Spelling "control
- panel", they never get saved across sessions. Hmm.
-
- I also can't seem to use any custom dictionaries. They don't get saved
- across Word sessions either.
-
- Am I an isolated case here, or are others having problems with the
- spelling feature? If this is a problem, does (a) ARDI know about it? and
- (b) are they doing something about it?
-
- The Word program itself seems to run OK, though.
-
- Thanks for your help!
