Format Shortcut Displays When You Double-Click Spelling Icon

• Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

SYMPTOMS

When you double-click the Spelling icon on the Status bar, the Format shortcut menu appears instead of the Spelling shortcut menu.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs when you spell check a selection that contains a combination of text immediately followed by the result of a field code, without a space separating the two.

When you double-click the Spelling icon on the Status bar, Word selects the first misspelled word. When there is no space between the text and the field code, the text and the field code are treated as one word.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95, version 7.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

WORKAROUND

Insert a space between the text and the field code.
