Mary, many new computer makers are offering WordPerfect instead of WORD these days and WordPerfect does not have the spell checker.  You might check out this "patch."

Subject: [PCSOFT] question

Good morning.<br>Got this site from the PC Lady and have a question.  I just bought a new Dell XP Home and discovered it does not include spell check.  First of all, I can't inagine ANYONE  selling computers today NOT including it.  I admit I am anal about my spelling and am somewhat desperate to include this.  Is there anything short of paying another $600 for Office  I can do to fix this?  Had I been aware it was not included I would have chosen another brand.<br>Thanks for your help.<br>Mary<br>[log in to unmask]<br><br>               The NOSPIN Group Promotions is now offering<br>              Mandrake Linux or Red Hat Linux CD sets along<br>             with the OpenOffice CD...  at a great price!!!<br>             http://freepctech.com/goodies/promotions.shtml<br>
