SPELL CHECK
When it comes to sending out quickie
e-mails sometimes we get ahead of ourselves and hit the send button a little
too soon. Only when we see our computer screen ‘blink’ do we realize that we
forgot to check our spelling.
I,
for one, spell horrifically and have to rely on my spellchecker 100%. However,
did you know there is a way to stop every e-mail in their tracks? You can
actually program your computer to check for spelling errors, even after you pressed
the send key.
Windows Mail: Open windows mail. Along the top of your window is the tool bar:
‘File-Edit-View-Tools- Message-Help’.
Highlight and click on ‘Tools’. A
box will drop down.
At the bottom of the drop
box, you will see ‘Options,’ click on it.
You are now flipped into another window that has several tab options.
Click on ‘Spelling’.
At the top of the new ‘Spelling’
window is the ‘Setting’ option. Place a check mark in the box ‘Always check
spelling before sending’. Do not forget to click on ‘Apply and Ok.
You are now able to send e-mails
without another thought because your computer will stop you in your tracks and
say, “what were you thinking”?
BTW, if you have Outlook, the
procedures are similar although, if you use the Gulftel website to compose and collect
your e-mail, they do not have this preset
option available.
Computer Tip: If you have two or more windows open at the
same time and want to quickly, toggle from one window to the other, hold down
your ‘Control’ (Crtl) key, and press your ‘Tab’ key.
