I'm a newbie here, trying Across 6 at a client's request after having given up on Across some years ago.

2. I want to spellcheck the entire file, but can find no way to do it, other than to move along segment by segment and look for the red squiggly lines. I want something like F7 in MS Word and most CAT tools that I am familiar with.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Susan,

In the crossView panel on the left hand appear several criterion for the quality management. One of them is the spellcheck. On page 428 of the User Manual Reference Guide for version 6 (ftp://ftp.across.net/documentation/user_manual_reference_guide_v6_en.pdf) you will see an explanation for the different icons and 5.4.2.3 QM View on page 430 refers to the spellcheck.

That worked fine, except on my version 6 it is View / Windows / Workspace which restores CrossView.

Hi Susan,

If you right-click the file name on the top of the QA list, you could choose the checking mode for the complete QA of the whole file.

I hope these will help you.
