    Word is a ******

    I appreciate M$ Word correcting my spelling (I don't make mistakes though, just typos).

    But the ****ing syntax 'analyzer' is driving me nuts. Basically, since I'm writing a filosofizical essay, I have very long sentences, filled with quotes and semi-columns. My whole screen is blinking with green lines telling me that my sentences are too long. This gets even worse when I browse through the document.

    How do I disable just that, and not the rest ?

    **** man.

      Oh, disabling 'check grammar as you type' works just fine. Somehow, I was looking for a 'syntax' option.



      Word still sucks donkey balls though.

          Did I just say 'readers' ?

          Sounds like I might need grammar checks after all.

            I saw a mockingbird kicking a cat's ass the other day.

                        I use Word XP. It can be a pain at times, but its OK overall. I wonder if Word 2007 is a lot better.

                        Ok, I'm off. Oncle, I hope you're not staying in a beautiful night like this? The ladies are calling... Tonight is the night.

                            The grammar-correction thing is obnoxious, but easy enough to turn off. I always want to strangle whoever thought to install all those "helpful" automatic thingamabobs where it sees you do something twice in a row and does it for you from that point on. "Hmm, he's pressing tab at the start of each paragraph...I know, I'll automatically insert a tab every time he presses Enter! That will be a valuable service!"

                            Result: I wind up doing whatever I was doing twice, once myself and once with the computer's help. Wretched word processor needs to learn its place.
