Spellcheck
Subject: Spellcheck

If you are using a medical spellchecker program, I don't know why you would use MS word to spell check anything. the spellchecker program runs in the background and underlines everything in red that is misspelled. so much easier than having to do a spell check on every document! just a suggestion.

Nonobstructing spell checks but I always hyphenate it as I think it looks better and is clearer. Just my opinion.

I will not use it either. I do not think it is professional looking and if I was still going through training, it would not be acceptable to the school either. but my Stedman's spellcheck will not accept it, either.

If your spellcheck checks for capitalization (like Word), you can just type the med in lower case, and it will mark it as wrong if it needs to be capitalized. You can then put the ones that need to be capitalized into autocorrect so you don't have to memorize brand names.

work and time, I would try to find out if a separate spellchecker could be used with your platform. If it can, I would think it would save you a whole lot of time with a lot less hassle. JMO

Question regarding Microsoft Word Spellcheck sm
Subject: Question regarding Microsoft Word Spellcheck sm

After completing the typing in a Microsoft Word document, I do a spell check.  When the spell check is complete, and I have to hit okay, it makes a really, really loud DING, and because I am using ExpressScribe and have to have the volume up on my headphones, it is really causing me problems with how loud the DING is, as it either scares the heck out of me or I also believe it is giving me a headache.  So, I have to take my headphones off while doing the spellcheck, so I'm not deaf by the end of the day.  I was wondering if anyone knew how to turn off the DING.  I would be so appreciative!
