So please help, what is the solution to check the spelling of special characters? Thank you in advance for considering my question as I struggle with grammar when doing my university homework. I'm thinking of trying https://essays.studymoose.com/write-my-personal-statement because my friend suggested it. He said that this source only hired experts who can professionally write my personal statement and it would be a solution for my problem.

Is this a good use case for an approval workflow? You’ll be amazed how spelling improves when users can’t release their own orders

Hi, Unfortunately, as far as I know, there is no good way to do this now.

As MahGah test, there should also be various restrictions on using browser add-ins. I have seen a discussion about auto-filling before, but none of them can be perfect.

For example,

PS: If you want to prevent users from entering special characters inside an input field, you can refer the following.

Hope this helps.

That was what I afraid of.

Maybe yzhums or JAngle can provide a method for customization based on this idea

Unfortunately where I need to have the spell checker is in the description lines.

That's where all the data entry is happening. I do see where if I type in the work description a misspelled word it does underline it so the Chrome spell checker is working. It's just not where I need it to work.

Thanks!

Please check that you have spell check On in Chrome https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/12027911?hl=en

Also, I believe Chrome does not spell check on drop-down field such as description. See below how it did in one spot but not in description.

If you mean those description then I hope someone can provide a solution for that.

Hello,

Thanks for the reply. I use Chrome and when I'm typing data say into a sales invoice or purchase order there isn't a spell checker. I'll take a look to at the link you provided.

Thanks,

Hi

Do you mean when you type the data or when you upload them? For upload I am not aware of any solution.

When you type then

For on-prem see this blog http://navnilesh.blogspot.com/2018/01/spelling-checker-in-nav.html

For SaaS I believe both Chrome and Edge has built-in spell check that works on BC as well.
