How to Check the Spelling of Every Email Automatically

The people who first created spell check programs for computers did humanity a huge favor. These programs not only find misspelled words, but also locate many typographical errors. Most email programs include a spell check feature, but require you to remember to click the spell check button after you've finished typing. Follow these steps to automatically check the spelling of every email.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

1. Check to see if your current email program has an automatic spell check feature. Microsoft Outlook allows you to set up automatic spell checking.
2. Look for add-on spell check software for email at download or shareware sites like Free Download Center or Shareware.com. You'll find specific programs to check spelling in Javascript or Delphi programs or general spell checking programs like Spell Check Anywhere or AutoSpell.
3. Try out a program that sounds promising. Many shareware programs allow a basic version of a program for free or a trial on an advanced program for a specific length of time. If you like it, you pay a small fee for the license.
4. Choose a program like Spell Check Anywhere if the users of your computer use different email programs. Spell Check Anywhere can check spelling in any Windows-based or web-based email.
5. Set Spell Check Anywhere by opening the spell checking options window. Click for a check mark next to "Auto correct." AutoSpell is already programmed to automatically prompt you with misspelled words.

Tips & Warnings

• Add the Google toolbar to your desktop. A spell check feature was added with the 3.0.119.3 version. SpellCheck checks your spelling in any webmails or when you type in any other web forms. It is compatible with any web-based mail program, including Yahoo, AOL and Hotmail. Unfortunately, you do have to remember to click the spell check button before hitting send.
