How do I use the spell-checking features?

ContactsLaw provides spell-checking for text in journals and contact/file notes. Spell-checking is implemented using plug-ins, so specific functionality may differ depending on your particular installation.

If you are running Windows 8 or newer, the default spell-checker uses functionality built-in to the operating system. For users running earlier versions of Windows, an alternative implementation which uses the Microsoft Word spell checking engine is provided.
 
Other implementations may also check grammar and other types of errors in the text.
 
Spell-checking in ContactsLaw is configured via the Application settings window. If multiple spell-checking plug-ins are available, you can select the implementation you wish to use. You can also disable spell-checking (useful on slower computers).
