Turn automatic spelling checks on or off

Applies to: Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003

When you turn automatic spelling checks off, Microsoft PowerPoint does not check spelling as you type, and no words get marked with a wavy, red underline. You can still run a spelling check using Spelling Button image , on the Standard toolbar, at any time.

On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Spelling and Style tab.
To turn spelling checks on or off, select or clear the Check spelling as you type check box.
