I would like to review my spell checker dictionary and make some corrections. For example I am forever forgetting to capitalize i and often type "to the" as "tot he". Running windows 7 and using Chrome as my browser. Is spell check a SawmillCreek Forum function or a browser or a windows function? I know the Office programs have their own.

Ole - in this case, your spell check would be a part of Chrome. You should be able to find something doing a Google search on how to add words to your dictionary.

Here is one link: Spell Check (http://www.thewindowsclub.com/remove-words-chrome-spelling-dictionary)

Thanks Steve, I went that route and it doesn't have a substitution option, I for i and to the for tot he the way Word does. Oh well. I would think Chrome would at least do the I for i thing as i is not a proper word.

??? Compose in your WORD or other word processing program; Spell Check; and then cut/paste in thread ??? A little convoluted but it works, especially for a long post (or if you have a funky acting keyboard like mine).
