We currently use a mix of MS Word 97, 2000 and 2002 and spell check fails to catch single letters, other than "A", "a", or "I", which are not normally valid as words.
This often occurs when a user omits one letter of a two-letter word or inadvertently inserts a space after the first letter of a word or prior to the last letter of a word. If the truncated word, absent the single letter that is stranded, forms a valid word (or is a single letter, itself) the spell checker will not alert the user to the presence of that misspelling.
I have created an exception list containing all possible single letters other than "A", "a", and "I", however spell check still skips over single letters.
While single letters have their place in outlining, they would generally be attached to some punctuation or otherwise differentiated from a single letter standing alone in the midst of a sentence. Ironically, spell check picks up on a lower-case "i" as being misspelled!
Any assistance would be appreciated!
