I told you earlier how grateful I was to now have the power of ieSpell to catch my errors. Most of those errors are typos rather than actual spelling problems.
I also rely on MS Word's spell checker to catch those. My typing stinks. One of my big, consistent problems is switching my D's and S's. So why, when I spent all evening typing a very important business document and ran it through spell check, did it not tell me that at more than one point I had typed tols instead of told. Is that a word? I couldn't find it on Dictionary.com.
Tols completely blows your credibility.
BTW: ieSpell didn't catch it either...if it is a word, what does it mean?
UPDATE: The spell checker in word also did not catch smmoth. ieSpell, however, did suggest (properly) that I probably meant smooth.
