    Rep point will be awarded to whoever can help.

    My problem is, I have this 30 page long document that I need spell-checked. I'm using google docs and their spell check is word-by-word, you have to click each word to check the spelling, this will take me forever.

    So if you're willing, let me know, and I'll send you the .doc file, you can spell check it, fix any errors, if you have questions about a word just ask me and I'll let you know.

    Thanks!

    That's just a price you'll have to pay. "Forever" is a lie. :eek: Those on Word would also have to know to go word by word, like Google Docs does. What ever time they take is the same it would take you.

    F7 will do Spell Check on MS Word, FYI. Also, you can read it to catch spelling error. :eek:

    I'd love to help, but I don't have much time today. If you can wait a couple days, I can help.

    Just post it on here. Swoly will find all of the errors for you, as well as make dumb TWSS jokes about random sentences.

    That's what YOU said. :p

    Fine, ToyCen. FINE.

    I don't need your rep "point"... but... if I correct all your spelling mistakes, do you promise to post at most ONE THREAD PER WEEK about UFOs/conspiracies/loans/childcare/flagsOnNewsBoysSleeves??? :confused:

    It's called "find & replace."

    Doesn't Google Docs have a spell checker built in? Judging from their help section it would appear so.

    And here is a page about how to use it.

    Does anyone here think FedEx Office/Kinkos or the local public or college library would have available computers with MS Office?
