Checking spelling

Checking the spelling in a Quattro Pro spreadsheet lets you search for misspelled or duplicate words and irregular capitalization. Quattro Pro also lets you automatically replace common spelling and typing errors. For example, you can automatically replace “adn” with “and.” Quattro Pro comes with a list of commonly misspelled words linked to the correct spelling. You can add and delete words from the list.

You can disable the automatic replacement of commonly misspelled words.
