Just a note: Pressing command+; will hilight misspelled words one at a time with each keypress. Pressing command+: will bring up the more familiar spell checker which has the list of suggestions and stuff. Hope this helps.

Olivia,

I've just had a quick look at textt edit and spell checking. It would appear after a very hurried and cursory attempt that spell checking works differently here than what you are used to in Word. You start the process by pressing command + ; at which point the first misspellt word is highlighted. I actually couldn't find any suggestions so I had to correct it manually. Then I had to execute the same command again to proceed and so on and so on. Maybe there's better way but at the moment I can't help you.

You might want to go into text edit edit menu and have a look and experiment. You might also want to try another application which is freeware downloadable from the internet called Bean. It might work somewhat better. Some people on the list have been using it successfully.

With best wisehes

Hi Everyone,
Sorry for all these questions! :)
I would really appreciate knowing how to use the spellcheck feature of text edit. For instance, is there a way to have the program suggest words like there is in microsoft word? Also, how do I atatch files to email messages? I haven't figured out how to find a single file and atatch it to a message though I can apparently atatch my whole documents folder. Thanks so much and again sorry for bombarding you with basic questions!
Olivia
