Spellcheck

Anonymous

Has anyone figured out if any other product besides Word will work for spell checking. I use Open Office, but I do have MS works on the computer. Any way to make it work with Archicad 15. I don't want to have to buy Word 2010.

No way that I know of: it is the spell-checking module from Word that is used... 😞

Do note that if you are running Win 7 64 bit, that even if you have Word, there is at present a known problem:

It is even a greater problem if you want to spell check a language that is not English!

Does anyone at Graphisoft monitor these discussions? Spell Checker has been an issue for several versions now. It is so frustrating!! Please Graphisoft..address this flaw in the program. How difficult can it be?
