Subject: Spell check is not always correct. If the

I have found several misspellings in mine, and they were not ones I put in, came with the program, so what I do is put the correct one in the spellcheck and make an expander with the incorrect spelling so that in case I should spell it that way, the spellcheck will not just skip it, it will be automatically corrected.

Hi, Could anyone tell me, please, where I can download a GOOD, but CHEAP Medical spellchecker and word expander program?

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!!
