Oh, I always have the squiggly lines turned on. But being able to use the Spellcheck dialog on an isolated file would allow to "automatically" correct a word only on that file, but not on others.
For example, I am working on a book with some stories that have "British" spelling, and others that use "American" spelling. So it would be handy if "color" appears on a British file and needs correction to "colour" in *that* file, but not in the files that use American spelling.
As it is now, I must go through the file and correct manually, either by typing over the word, or by using Search and Replace to find multiple instances of that word --- using the Spellcheck auto-correction would change every occurrence in the book in one step, even the places I don't want changed.
It is only a lazy granny's wishlist -- don't worry about it overmuch!
Thanks for responding to my post.
