MS Office Forum / Word / Document Management / May 2008Spellcheck for duplicate words
How do I get Spellchecjker to report and suggest removal of duplicate words accidentally typed in a sentence? Doesn't it do this automatically?  SignatureSuzanne S.

One would think so, but it didn't. I checked Spellcheck options just to make sure there wasn't a function controlling duplicate word check that might have been accidentally shut off. But, I couldn't find any selectable options. > Doesn't it do this automatically? > > > How do I get Spellchecjker to report and suggest removal of duplicate > > words > > accidentally typed in a sentence?

Suzanne is right: the speller identifies repetitions automatically and there is no special function or option you need to activate to do so. Don't hesitate to tell us if you have legitimate duplications which the speller does not find. If you type something like "He read the the book", the second occurrence of "the" should be red-squiggled. If you right-click on it, you can choose to "Delete Repeated Word".
