Spelling Coach from Deneba offers an interactive and batch spell checker, an online version of Merriam-Webster's 9th, including complete definitions of all dictionary entries, an online thesaurus, and a somewhat primitive grammar checker. The dictionary includes hyphenation and capitalization rules for all entries. I've used the product for over a year, and have been very pleased with it. Iit turns ms-word into a very powerful writing tool. -- Brian ==== Brian K.
