Spell Check Keyboard Shortcut for Microsoft Word

Hit Alt + F7 on your keyboard, and it will start with the first misspelled word. If the first highlighted word at the top of the list is correct, just hit Enter. Or you can arrow to the correct one, ignore it, or Add to Dictionary.

Hit Alt + F7 again, and it will go to the next misspelled word. If you practice keyboard Kung fu, this makes correcting spelling mistakes in Word much easier.

This should work with every version of Microsoft Word, at least with 2003 and higher. Now what was that combination again – oh yes, Alt +F2… Just kidding!!! Ah, but if you are interested in spellchecking just that word you just typed that came up with a red underline, Alt+F7 replaces the need to right-mouse click. Useful as you’re typing. Thanks.
