Thanks, I had not thought of that.  Some days the dyslexia is worse than others.

Also, if you use Firefox as a browser, it has a spellcheck built in (AFAIK, I'm not very techie on this kind of stuff).

They were all underlined for me when I posted.

It's either built in or a default setting.

If you misspell, it gives you a red-dotted underline on the word.
