Ok ... so I had to get a new PC the other day which included Windows 8 . I downloaded the new office addition ...........
Low and behold all of my posts in the Forum are now spell checked? and can be corrected! Is this new for the Forum or is it the new software I'm running? Nevertheless a life saver for me , as I can't spell nor write well ....this new capability my friends is a great asset. :)

Holy cow Jeff. Your not that old. How did you not have spell check. I guess maybe it's a good thing that old PC took a poop:).
All post can be corrected by the op for a certain amount of time. I think 1/2 hour. After that, you need to ask a mod too do it. Now, if your able to go back through old post and correct them, well then my friend, as fas as I know, your the only one that can do that, that's not a mod.:D

It's probably just automatic with the new programs. In older versions, you had to choose for the computer to correct your spelling. If you didn't know where to look to find it, then you never chose the function.

I'd be willing to bet that if you told Cameron what operating system and browser you use he'd be able to tell you where to look to find the spell check function on your programs.
