PC Win: Spell Does Not Check Words Containing Numbers (95733)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Mail for Windows 3.0
This article was previously published under Q95733

SYMPTOMS

The spelling checker in Microsoft Mail version 3.0 for Windows does not check words that contain numbers. Therefore, a misspelling such as "Th8s" is not flagged as incorrect.

CAUSE

The spelling checker API has the ability to turn on or off the "Ignore checking of words with numbers" option. Mail forces this option on and does not allow you the ability to turn it off.

This feature is by design.
