The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: The Spell feature does not check document comments. Is this working correctly? The WordPerfect 5.1 manual (11/89 printing, page 639) states: "The Speller checks regular document text and text in substructures (like headers, footers, footnotes, endnotes, graphics boxes with text, etc.). It does not check the spelling of text inside styles. Only the captions of equation boxes are checked by the Speller, not the text of the equation." The operator's impression after reading this is that Document Comments should not be spell checked. Solutions: The assumption that the Speller is not supposed to spell check document comments is correct. Development is not aware of a hard and fast policy on whether the program should or should not spell check document comments. If the program did perform this function, then the program will also need to address the question of whether words in a document comment should be counted during the spell check process. This information should be written up as an enhancement. If you continue to receive calls on this, please submit the problem as a candidate for the Hotlist.
