a "Document Title".Some combination of (1) proper names - even document titles - are
frequently not dictionary words and (2) users are likely to have
taken particular care over entering the data for such fields and
not need the assistance of a spelling checker?What you say would be true in a perfect world,
but in reality users
(even careful ones) DO make mistakes. Are you saying that our
developers are making a highly arrogant presumption that mistakes
are NEVER made in user defined fields?In
the same way, most mail clients don't check the spelling of the
To: header of a message, even the "real name" part. And many -
even one well-known one - do not check the Subject: header. The
spelling checker I use with my mail client accepts "Dave" but
won't countenance "Barton".Email headers are an entirely different beast and have nothing to
do
with Writer fields.I
trust this helps.Brian BarkerDave
