Run the spelling and grammar checker

To start a check of the spelling and grammar in your document, just press F7.

Click a heading below for more information

Most Office programs automatically check for potential spelling and grammatical errors as you type, so you don’t need to do anything to show errors while you work. 

Notes: 

  • Automatic spelling and grammar checking is not available in Access, Excel, or Project. You can manually start a spell check by pressing F7.

  • Automatic grammar checking is available only in Outlook, Word, and PowerPoint 2013 (or newer).

Office marks potential spelling errors with a red squiggly line, and potential grammatical errors are marked with a blue squiggly line.

If spelling or grammatical errors aren’t marked, automatic checking might be turned off. You can turn on the automatic spelling and grammar checker.

When you see a spelling or grammatical error that you want assistance fixing, right-click on the underlined word or phrase and choose one of the options to fix the error.

If Office is flagging words as misspelled but you have it spelled the way you want it, select Add to Dictionary to teach Office not to flag that word as misspelled in the future. For more information on this see: Add or edit words in a spell check dictionary.

If you don’t want Office to mark potential errors with squiggly lines while you are working, you can turn automatic spelling and grammar checking off:

  1. Open the spelling and grammar options:

    • In OneNote, PowerPoint, Publisher, Visio, and Word: On the File menu, click Options, and then click Proofing.

    • In InfoPath: On the Home tab, click the arrow next to or under Spelling, and then click Spelling Options.

    • In Outlook: On the File menu, click Options, and click Mail, and then click Spelling and Autocorrect.

  2. Select or clear the Check spelling as you type check box. In programs that have automatic grammar checking, you may also select or clear the Mark grammar errors as you type check box.

    Note: In Word, you can turn the spelling checker on or off for only the document you’re currently working with or for all new documents. Select an option in the Exceptions for list, and then select or clear the Hide spelling errors in this document only and Hide grammar errors in this document only check boxes.

  1. Open the document or item that you want to check.

  2. On the File menu, click Options > Proofing> Recheck Document. In Outlook you’ll find this under File > Options > Mail > Spelling and Autocorrect

There are many grammar check tools on the web, but only one is the best. By using a trusted and professional Microsoft Word grammar check Add-on, you’ll make writing more accessible, better, and even faster. For that reason, I’ll show you today the best writing corrector for Word that comes with spell check on Facebook, social media, web browsers, also proofreading, punctuation check, and more.

Complete grammar check for MS Word

Grammarly is a great grammar correction and also a spell check software. The tool integrates automatically into your web browser and checks your online writing. That includes social media sites and email accounts like Gail, Yahoo, and others.

Grammarly is the most popular software for grammar, spell check, and proofreading among students, and professional writers. Additionally, it’s the number one recommended tool for many universities across the US and the world. The reason for that is the level of check that the software offers.

In reality, Grammarly works faster, and it provides accurate spell checks and editing. Furthermore, it comes with lots of options such as the plagiarism check, sentence corrector, and more.

Because it’s advanced software, Grammarly checks for comma splices, punctuations, complete sentences, grammar, and more. Unlike other options that are available online, this is a professional grammar check solution that fixes issues while typing on Instagram, Snapchat, and not only editing programs. So, it makes sense to use its pro version because it comes with more complicated grammar corrections, complex sentence structure, and higher levels of text scan.

Now, if you think that checking grammar in Word is enabled by default in MS Office, then, think again. The default grammar check in MS Office misses most of the complex issues. And by skipping what Grammarly finds as writing problems, it won’t be an excellent way to compete with others who use the tool and write better sentences, essays, and papers.

How does the Word grammar check work?

Adding Grammarly to Word is easy, and you don’t need any complicated installs or configurations. That’s because the company offers an Add-in for Microsoft Office that’s well-coded and works faster. Indeed, the first step is to create your Grammarly account for free.

Then, if you want, you can upgrade to the premium account to get the full list of features and more checkpoints. For example, you get a premium quality proofreading and plagiarism check.

Next, you can download the add-in and then enable the tool from the top right corner. Now, everything will work, and you can just start writing in Word or adding your text by copying and pasting. But first, make sure to choose the editing category that you need. That includes different checking types like General, Medical, Business, Casual, and more.

Grammarly on MS Word

In addition to the above details about the Grammarly add-in for Word, there is another important thing to mention here. We’re in a world where people can copy your content and post it on their sites and blogs. The same things happen every day; you may find yourself using someone else’s phrase accidentally.

So, it’s recommended to have a good MS Office plagiarism add-on. However, you don’t have to look elsewhere if you have Grammarly. The tool detects plagiarism directly from your document. And that’s what can make you wring stand out from others.

It’s even more helpful for students who need plagiarism-free essays, and when teachers see that their work was already there on the web, it’s not a comfortable situation for everyone. But once you install this good app, then, spelling and grammar checks in your Word editor will be faster, more accurate, and more comfortable.

Fix your grammar in Microsoft Word

The Microsoft Word grammar check software works by scanning your entire document for every single mistake you made. Then, it compares the words with the ones in the huge database. Finally, it suggests the right corrections. So, it’s a complete tool that lets you check for grammar mistakes and correct your sentence structure.

Compared to other tools such as Ginger, Grammarly is faster and more accurate for Microsoft Office tools, Google Chrome browser, and others. When you enable the grammar check in Word, the app works in the background and in real-time. So, when you start typing words, it checks the sentences for issues and helps you to fix them with one click.

Also, it lets you check for vocabulary errors, and spelling mistakes, and finds missing or wrong punctuation.

Grammarly is the most accurate grammar tool that you can use with Microsoft Office, including Word, and others. Also, you can use it for Outlook, and all the websites. In other words, it’s an online grammar tool that works in real-time by scanning the text while you write.

Grammarly plugin in Word

The software comes with a great punctuation checker. So, you can check your document for missing and, wrong punctuation and even, get suggestions and explanations.

On the other hand, the Grammarly plugin for Word works better than any other application you can find on the web. The quality is better, and the software is optimized for better processor speed and performance. Thus, you’ll be able to correct your grammar mistakes, without even slowing down your computer.

Of course, the tool works for the different Windows OS versions without problems. Also, you can use it online with your private account of Grammarly’s editor tool.

Conclusion

In conclusion, Grammarly is the recommended grammar check Add-on for Microsoft Word that checks for different levels of writing problems and also corrects spelling errors. It’s a lightweight tool that integrates well into the OS and works better. The software comes with different levels of checking, and that will save you lots of time and effort. When you test the free version of the app, make sure you upgrade. It’s better all the way.

The software works for Windows computers. But also, you can install it on Mac as well. If you have only a Mac, you can use the online editor. It’s your account where you can check for writing mistakes online and for free. You can copy and paste any text, and then, correct the mistakes and get the final copy using it free of grammatical errors.

По мере распространения новых версий Office становится важным, чтобы отправленный документ работал и в старой версии. Вы можете никогда не знать, какую версию Office использует ваш клиент. Microsoft Office предлагает средство проверки совместимости документов для всех своих приложений Office, включая Word, Excel, PowerPoint. В этом посте мы узнаем, как проверить совместимость документов Microsoft Office со старыми версиями.

как проверить совместимость документов microsoft office с более старыми версиями

Это относится к Office 365, Office 2019, Office 2010 и Office 2007. Параметры могут отличаться.

Как проверить совместимость документов Microsoft Office со старыми версиями

  • Откройте любой файл Office. Здесь я использую Word.
  • Нажмите на File > Info , чтобы открыть все инструменты, которые могут отображать информацию о файле.
  • Нажмите на кнопку Check for Issues
  • Затем нажмите на Check for Compatibility
  • В Compatibility Checker , выберите версию (Word 2003, Word 2007, Word 2010) как проверить совместимость документов microsoft office с более старыми версиями
  • Если есть проблема, вы получите уведомление об этом в краткой форме.
  • Также имейте в виду, что если файл открыт на компьютере клиента, и есть проблема, документ автоматически откроется в режиме совместимости.

    Проверка совместимости в Office Word/Excel/PowerPoint 2007

    Если вы используете Office 2007, то вот как проверить режим совместимости. Хотя приведенный ниже пример относится к Word, то же самое касается PowerPoint и Excel.

    Microsoft Word 2007 обладает удивительными возможностями, которые являются более интерактивными и включают в себя множество динамических объектов. Однако эти функции и объекты не поддерживаются в старых версиях, т.е. в 97-2003 версиях office .

    Так что теперь, если вы подготовите документ word с помощью office 2007 и отправите его кому-то, кто имеет более старую версию Office, скажем 2003, то произойдет то, что он не сможет увидеть эти функции, и это будет большой беспорядок. Вот небольшой совет, который вы всегда должны использовать, чтобы проверить, совместим ли ваш документ word или нет.

    • Нажмите на Главное меню Word 2007 (расположенное слева вверху)
    • Затем нажмите на Подготовить, и перед вами появится множество вариантов.
    • Нажмите на последнюю опцию, которая гласит Запустить программу проверки совместимости

    Она проверит, какие функции не будут работать и выдаст вам сообщение об ошибке. Он также скажет вам, что произойдет с объектом, если кто-то откроет его в более старой версии Microsoft. Рассмотрим пример. Я вставил Smart Art Graphic в документ word, и вот что получилось на выходе.

    как проверить совместимость документов microsoft office с более старыми версиями

    Проверка выдала сообщение об ошибке с вероятным результатом.

    как проверить совместимость документов microsoft office с более старыми версиями Это очень важно, когда вы создаете важный документ. Это поможет, если вы всегда будете заботиться о возможностях, с которыми может столкнуться человек. Я слышал от многих людей, что клиент кричал на них, говоря, что ваш документ Word показывает мусор, а не то, как ондолжен был быть. Надеюсь, это поможет.

    How to find more details about Word versions and version numbers

    We talk about e.g. Word 2010 or Word 2019 or Word for Microsoft 365 (or just Word 365). Each version of Word has a version number that used to be unique. However, after the launch of Office 2019 in October 2018, this is not exactly true anymore: Word 2016, Word 2019, Word 2021, and Word for Microsoft 365 share the same number!

    In the illustrations above for Word 2010, Word 2007, and Word 2003, you see a long number, e.g. 14.0.7116.5000 for Word 2010. The leftmost part of the long number (here 14) is the version number for the Word version.

    In case of Word 2013, Word 2016, Word 2019, and Word 2021, you must select File Account category and click the About Word button to see the corresponding number. It is shown in top of the dialog box that opens.

    Below are illustrations from Word 2016, Word 2019, Word 2021, and Word for Microsoft 365. As you can see, all four versions have number 16.0 which can lead to a lot of confusion. As you can see in the illustrations for Word 2016 and 2019 below, they even had the entire long version and build number in common at the time when I made the illustrations:

    NOTE: The information in the dialog box that opens when you click About Word may not look exactly as shown in the illustrations below. Microsoft seems to move the information around from time to time.

    Word version – Word 2016 has number 16.0

    Word 2016 has number 16.0

    Word version – Word 2019 has number 16.0

    Word 2019 has number 16.0

    Word 2021 has number 16.0

    Word 2021 has number 16.0

    Word version – Word for Microsoft 365 has number 16.0

    Word for Microsoft 365 has number 16.0

    The number must be used e.g. in macros.

    The last two groups of digits in the long number contains information about which updates have been installed.

    For Word 2003, you also see SP3 after the version number. It tells that Service Pack 3 has been installed.

    Comments

    Sometimes called Word XP

    Microsoft skipped 13

    As explained above, Word 2016, Word 2019, Word 2021, and Word for Microsoft 365 have the same number. This is not practical for developers but that is how Microsoft has implemented it.

    If you have Microsoft 365 installed, you will automatically have the latest Word version. However, you may have the version updated with a delay depending on which Channel you are on.

    How to detect the version of Word by looking at the splash screen that appears when you start Word

    When you start Word, a splash screen (i.e. a window with an image showing information about the product) is shown while the program is launching. You may be able to detect the version of Word by looking at the splash screen. However, as you will see from the illustrations below, you may to be able to distinguish between all versions of Word that way.

    The splash screen may disappear too quickly for you to catch the information you need. If you have installed one or more add-ins, this will normally make the splash screen stay on screen a little longer since Word needs time to load the add-ins.

    The illustrations below show the splash screens from different versions of Word.

    Splash screen - Word for Microsoft 365

    New slash screen - Word for Microsoft 365

    Word for Microsoft 365
    Splash screen

    Late in 2021, Microsoft has introduced a new look that also affects the splash screen.

    You may see either the blue (old) or the white (new) splash screen depending on your Office version.

    Notice the text Microsoft 365 in both versions.

    As explained above, the name was changed from Office 365 to Microsoft 365 as of April 21, 2020.

    Здравствуйте. Многим пользователям приходится часто набирать текст для составления документов, написания контента для сайтов, оформления писем и т.д. Очень важно писать правильно, чтобы не показать себя глупым и невежественным человеком. Я рекомендую программу Word из офисного пакета Microsoft Office. В данной статье хочу рассказать, как проверить текст на ошибки онлайн и в Word 2010 или других версиях этого текстового редактора.

    Немного истории

    Еще в 2010 году я создал развлекательный ресурс о кино, где публиковал рецензии на фильмы, обзоры премьер, биографии актеров. Спустя четыре года на сайте было размещено более трех тысяч статей. Однажды я решил посмотреть свои первые записи, и был ошеломлен. Обнаружил массу ошибок грамматических и пунктуационных, предложения состояли из множества оборотов, читать их было непросто. На то время я не проверял их на правописание, а зря. Первые дни я не мог успокоиться и редактировал старые тексты, чтобы довести их до ума.

    Вывод напрашивался сам: следовало предварительно набирать обзоры в Ворде, чтобы автоматически исправлять ошибки.

    В этой программе встроен очень полезный функционал, который выделяет (подчеркивает) некорректный ввод красной или зеленой волнистой линией. Но не всегда проверка срабатывает автоматически. Возможно, её предварительно нужно включить в настройках приложения. Как это сделать – Вы сейчас узнаете!

    Варианты проверки

    Существует несколько способов «сканирования» документов на наличие ошибок. Перейдем к их рассмотрению.

    Как проверить текст на ошибки онлайн

    Сервисов существует немало, но самыми распространенными являются Спеллер от Яндекса и Text.ru. Достаточно перейти по указанным ссылкам и вставить в поле ввода нужный текстовый фрагмент.

    как сделать spell check в word

    Автоматическая

    Срабатывает по ходу набора текста, чтобы можно было сразу внести изменения. К примеру, Вы пропустили букву в слове, или не поставили пробел после знака препинания. Word сразу же предупредит о необходимости исправления.

    Но если Вы вводите заведомо некорректные слова, а система никак на это не реагирует, значит, автоматическая проверка не включена. Как её активировать?

    • Заходим в главное меню приложения, кликнув по кнопке в левом верхнем углу.
    • Теперь следует нажать на «Параметры Word» (этот элемент может находиться в разных местах, в зависимости от версии программы). У меня это выглядит так:

    как сделать spell check в word

    • Для Ворд 2013 с обновленным интерфейсом меню имеет следующий вид:

    как сделать spell check в word

    • Дальнейшие опции одинаковы для разных выпусков офисного редактора. Слева выбираем пункт «Правописание». А справа находим строчку «Автоматически проверять…» и ставим возле неё галочку.

    как сделать spell check в word

    В самом низу можно задать набор правил для проверки. По умолчанию выбрано значение «для деловой переписки», но можно указать более строгий алгоритм, если хотите устранить максимум ошибок и убрать разговорные фразы.

    Проверка по умолчанию

    Если во время набора текста начинают подчеркиваться правильные слова, скорее всего они отсутствуют в словаре программы. Нужно их туда добавить. Как это сделать правильно?

    • Выделяем необходимое слово / фразу / фрагмент документа;
    • Переходим в раздел «Рецензирование», затем – «Правописание» (для Ворд 2007 и выше). Для более ранних версий следует зайти в меню «Сервис». Или проще нажать на клавиатуре «F7». Откроется следующее окно:

    как сделать spell check в word

    Здесь можно либо пропустить ошибку, либо исправить её (могут быть предложены варианты замены), либо добавить её в словарь (если считаете, что слово является правильным и не содержит ошибок).

    С этим разобрались.

    Но что делать, если Вы пытаетесь выполнить вышеуказанные действия, но перед Вами появляется сообщение «Средства проверки не установлены»? Или же просто отображается окошко, что «Проверка окончена», но красное / зеленое подчеркивание не убирается? В таком случае, необходимо перейти к следующим шагам.

    Установка пакета

    Речь идет о пакете проверки правописания, который по каким-то причинам не вошел в состав приложения. Возможно, Вы забили указать его во время инсталляции. Решение следующее:

    • Переходим в «Панель управления» и открываем раздел «Программы и компоненты»:

    как сделать spell check в word

    • В появившемся окне отобразятся все установленные программы. Следует найти Word, выделить его и кликнуть по кнопке «Изменить»:

    как сделать spell check в word

    • После короткой паузы должно отобразиться окно с предложением добавить новые компоненты / удалить существующие. Жмем «Продолжить» (Далее).
    • Теперь следует раскрыть ветку «Общие средства». В ней должны быть «Средства проверки правописания». Кликаем по элементу и выбираем опцию «Запускать всё с моего ПК»:

    как сделать spell check в word

    Вот и всё! Осталось дождаться установки выбранного компонента. После этого рекомендую перезапустить компьютер.

    Настройки языка

    Бывает, что для одного языка проверка производится корректно, а для другого – вообще не работает. Например, если нужно проверить текст на английском на ошибки. В таком случае, следует перейти во вкладку «Рецензирование» (она есть и в Ворде 2016 года), нажать на изображение глобуса. Это меню выбора языка, где следует снять отметку напротив опции «Не проверять правописание»:

    Видео

    Если не хотите читать много букв, то можете откинуться на спинку кресла (или стула) и посмотреть обучающее видео, как включить проверку орфографии в Word:

    Как видите, всё очень просто. Буквально несколько кликов – и проблема устранена. Теперь знаете, как проверить английский текст на ошибки онлайн (или на любом другом языке). Даже если Ваша ситуация сугубо индивидуальна и не может быть решена с помощью моей инструкции, рекомендую задавать вопросы в комментариях. Я обязательно на них отвечу.
