Using Excel 2003 and 2007. Is there an option for checking spelling as you
type (similar to W2003) so incorrect words are underlined?

Thanks
 
EXCEL 2007

Office Button / Excel Options / Proofing / AutoCorrect options (at the top
on the right hand side).

Please hit Yes if my comments have helped.

Thanks.
 
I found the AutoCorrect but no choice for spell check as you type - I would
like to see the misspelled word not have excel just change it.
 
Hi dp, sorry, I have just had another look around.

I typed in:-

spell check as you type

- into the F 1 Help Facility and looked at the first 100 topics but could
see nothing.

Doesn't look as though 2007 has got it unless somebody else know better.

Apologies.
 
thanks for your time.

No such feature in Excel.

Excel does not have the same word processing capabilities as Word.

You can spellcheck after you type, not during.
