Medical spell check and word expander
Subject: Medical spell check and word expander
Hi, Could anyone tell me, please, where I can download a GOOD, but CHEAP Medical spellchecker and word expander program? I just got a new computer with Vista and my Shortcuts program or dictionary (Dorland's) will not work. I have been off work for a while and need desperately to work, but I'm lacking money to buy those. Info would be appreciated. I've spent hours looking on the Net. Thanks!!
