The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q220343 SYMPTOMS
When you check the spelling of a document, using the Change All option to correct all occurrences of a misspelled word, Word may not change all occurrences of the word. Instead, Word may continue to flag the remaining misspelled word(s) for correction.
For example, after you choose to change the first occurrence of a particular word, you click Change All to change the spelling of the second and remaining occurrences of the word to a different spelling than the first occurrence, Word changes only the second occurrence of the word. The remaining occurrences of the misspelled word are individually flagged as misspelled.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, select the correct spelling of each flagged misspelled word and click Change.
