Works 3.0: Words Ending in "S" Not Always Spell Checked (99501)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Works for the Macintosh 3.0
- Microsoft Works 3.0
This article was previously published under Q99501 SYMPTOMS
In a Word Processing document, spelling errors in singular nouns
ending in "s" (such as class, boss, or moss) are not found by the
spelling checker if the error is an extra "s" (for example, classs,
bosss, mosss). The spelling checker will ignore these words, treating
them as if they were correct.
Plural nouns with an extra "s", such as studentss, and adjectives with
an extra "s", such as thiss, are accurately flagged as incorrect.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Works version 3.0. This
problem was corrected in Works for the Macintosh, version 4.0.
