Microsoft Word provides a decent Spelling and Grammar Checker which enables you to search for and correct all spelling and grammar mistakes in your document. Word is intelligent enough to identify misspelled or misused, as well as grammar errors and underlines them as follows. A red underline beneath spelling errors.

To start a check of the spelling and grammar in your file just press F7 or follow these steps:

1. Open most Office programs, click the Review tab on the ribbon. In Access or InfoPath you can skip this step. In Project you'll go to the Project tab.

2. Click Spelling or Spelling & Grammar.

   

3. If the program finds spelling mistakes, a dialog box appears with the first misspelled word found by the spelling checker.

4. After you decide how to resolve the misspelling (ignoring it, adding it to the program’s dictionary, or changing it), the program moves to the next misspelled word.
