Hello Mike; Thanks for taking the time to respond to my query. If you will
notice at the end of my post I mention that I had decided to simply transfer
to Works. Maybe this is to cryptic as you may know Vista comes standard with
Windows Works. this suite includes a word processing program. I also have on
CD Office 2000 premium and 2007 but choose not to use them. My main goals are
simplicity of use and speed. This is the only reason I asked such an
obviously unanswerable question. I really did not believe that spell check
could be inserted into Notepad or Wordpad by I was hoping. After using the
works processor I find that it is at least sufficient for my needs and much
faster to open then I had previously thought. As for OpenOffice... Thanks,
but no thanks. Again thank you for your help.

I am using Vista home basic Notepad. I find note pad very convienient for
journaling and keeping track of things like user names and passwords. When
I
first began using the programe I knew there was no spell check but I
continued anyway. Unfortunatly my spelling is so attricious that I'm going
to
have to do something. I know there are other programes I can use but now I
have a great deal of text already writen that i would realy hate to break
the
stream of what I already have. I was hoping that there may be a way to
insert
some form of spell check into Notepad, if not I guess I'll have to move
the
text over to word pad. Just a sec , I'm ging to see if wordpad has spell
check.... Crap! How ironic, I just tried to use my browser spell check on
this window...Not! Well if anyone Knows how to accomplish the task of
inserting spell check into Notepad or Word pad let me know. While we are
at
it lets us try and talk Microsoft into spell check for this window.
Meanwhile
I'll be moving my text over to works and simply move ahead.

If you do not have a word processor which has spell check facilities and you
do not want to pay out for a product like Microsoft Office, consider
downloading Open Office..
