Grammar Checking _might_ be integrated into OOo 3.0. Creating the rule sets for grammar checking is very time consuming. The basic procedure is: i) Create a dictionary. ii) Match a part of speech to every word in the dictionary; iii) Match a part of speech to every suffix, affix, and concord for the dictionary; iv) Create your basic rules sets. [This is things like noun verb noun.] v) Then create the more complex rules Step one can take two or three months; Step two can take one person six months to a year; Step three can take one person six months to a year; Step four takes one person one to two years; Step five takes one person two to three years; The fastest way to speed up the process is to increase the number of people working on the project. xan jonathon -- Does your Office Suite conform to ISO Standards? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
