spell check words with punctuation

[Guest]

In older versions of Word it would identify if words with punctuation in them
were spelled incorrectly for instance, medical abbreviations like b.i.d. and
p.r.n. Now the spell check doesn't recognize words with punctuation in them
as errors. Is there any way around this?

Try asking this in the word.spelling.grammar newsgroup, where Microsoft people
drop by, occasionally. Be sure to specify WHICH version of Word you're currently
using, and in which version you saw the behavior you prefer.
