Spell Check Treats Non-Alphanumeric Character |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The Speller does not stop on misspelled words containing non-alphabetic characters. For example "eve=were" is skipped over. Solutions: The only characters recognized as valid by the Spell Checker are 0-9, A-Z, a-z, international characters 1,23-1,233, the apostrophe ('), and for rule based (algorithmic) dictionaries, the hard hyphen (Home-Hyphen). All other characters including punctuation (e.g., periods, semicolons, etc.), brackets, braces, parentheses, etc. are treated as word delimiters or spaces. Because both "eve" and "were" are correctly spelled words and the "=" is treated as if it were a space, the Speller continues. |
