How to Send a Word 2007 Document Without Spell Checker Lines

Within Microsoft Word 2007 are several options for how to use and display the spell checker feature. Default settings will display red squiggly lines under misspelled words. However, if the Word 2007 dictionary does not recognize a word, it will still display this squiggly line even if you have spelled the word correctly. Fortunately, you can quickly turn off the spell checker lines before saving and sending a document.

Instructions

1. Click on the "Review" tab at the top of the document tool bar. This opens various spelling and grammar tools and settings.

2. Click on the "Spelling & Grammar" option, which is located under the tabs on the far left of the screen.

3. Click "Options" in the window that opens; this choice will appear on the bottom left corner of the window.

4. Check the boxes that read "Hide spelling errors in this document only" and "Hide grammar errors in this document only." By clicking these boxes, you will remove the spell checker and grammar checker lines within the document, but not affect future documents.

5. Save and send the document as you normally would. The settings will then be saved and will be unaffected by emailing the document using normal attachment procedures.
