Check spelling

Flash MX 2004 and Flash MX Professional 2004 introduce new features that let you check spelling in most places where text occurs in your document, including text fields, layer names, and ActionScript strings. To check spelling, you first configure the Spelling Setup options, and then run the spell checker.

1. Select Text > Spelling Setup.
2. Verify that Check Text Fields Content is selected, and that you've selected the appropriate dictionary. Select any other options, as desired. Then click OK.
3. Select Text > Check Spelling and respond to the dialog boxes that the spell checker presents. When you finish checking spelling, save your document.

   Note: To check spelling in text in external files, use the spell-check feature associated with the application that you used to create the external file.
