I'm using EndNote Plus v1.2 with Word 5.1a on MacIntosh. I would like to
use spell checking on abstracts and notes. As far as I know, the only ways
to do so are:

export the entire dictionary, read it as text, check spelling, make
corrections, and reload the dictionary;

or

copy and paste each abstract into (or type originally in) Word, check
spelling, then copy and paste into EndNote.

Does EndNote have access to Word's spell checker and I've missed it, or
does someone else have another method? If not, I'd like to see spell
checking added to EndNote indirectly (PLEASE, not another spell checker
with its own dictionaries) through access to either the host word processor
(e.g. Word) or an external dictionary.

Avi, I'm not sure my postings are getting out. I read the discussion

please send an e-mail to me telling me if this is successfully posted to
the usenet list and to the bitnet list?

And thank you for your helpfullness and participation. You and your company
are doing an excellent job of customer support.
