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
Simon

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
