    but it never works, so I just use the spell check on my Google Toolbar for Firefox.

    I usually copy my posts and paste them into OpenOffice to spell check them there as I'm a terrible speller. The thing is, OO won't catch wrong word usage since the word that is wrongly used may be spelled correctly. It's funny how you'll look over a post several times and not see any apparent errors, so you post it. Then after a while, you go back and read your post again, only to find errors you somehow entirely missed the first time around.

    Spelling is easy - and it can be checked easy enuff too. It's grammer that's the real failing.

    Personally, I dont have any real problems with my grammer, I can construct sentences proper and everything. A mate of mine and me was talking about this in the pub the other night when, we discussed many of the common errors. Its easy too get wrong aswell if, you dont concentrate on what your typing...

    Thank you. You don't know how much I appreciate that .

    I do my best to spell correctly and have proper grammar. It's easier to read for everyone else on the forum.
