Spell Check Preferences

---

Use this form to set the preferences for Greentree Desktop's spelling check feature.

Case sensitive

Select this option if Greentree should treat the same word spelled using upper case and lower case letters as different words. For example, if you select this option, the words Greentree, GREENTREE and greentree are considered to be different words. If you don't select this option, Greentree considers these words to be identical.

Phonetic suggestions

Select this option to suggest replacements for misspelled words based on phonetic similarity using English pronunciation

Typographical suggestions

Select this option to suggest replacements for misspelled words based on typographical similarity

You must select either Phonetic suggestions or Typographical suggestions.

Auto correct

Select this option to correct a word when that word is misspelled (based on a list of words). The auto correct can be automatic, for example alwyas or alwasy would be corrected to always. In some cases, Greentree prompts the user for the replacement word before making the change.

Suggest split words

Select this option to suggest splitting words when the word itself is not valid, but the words within it are. For example, if this option is selected, Greentree will suggest Green tree as an alternative to the word Greentree.

Report double words

Select this option to report when the same word is entered twice, one after the other.

Ignore UPPERCASE words

Select this option to ignore all words typed in uppercase letters.

Ignore words with numbers

Select this option to ignore words that contain a mixture of letters and number. For example, if the option is selected, the word Win10 is ignored.

Ignore words with mixed case

Select this option to ignore words that contain a mixture of upper and lower case letters. For example, if selected, the word eReporting is ignored.

Ignore internet and email addresses

Select this option to ignore text that appears to be a domain name, email address, or URL. For example, if selected, www.myob.com is ignored.

Custom dictionaries

You can find the English dictionaries for spell checking in the Greentree system \bin folder. These include American, British, and Canadian English files - the preference is assigned at a company level using Company Maintenance. You can add custom dictionaries if required, separated by a semi-colon.

To create a custom dictionary for a company that uses specific terms, have one user add all the terms into the dictionary using the Add function. Once the required words are added to the user's dictionary, there will be a dictionary in the user's \bin folder called userdic.tlx. You can rename this file and copy it to the Greentree \bin folder. The file is copied to each user's computer when Greentree is next run. Enter the name of the new dictionary into the Custom dictionaries section on the User Preference form, and then all users will have access to the dictionary.

If you are running Greentree as as a multi-user system, where users share the same \bin folder, there is only be one user dictionary that all the users words is added to.
