    The keyboard shortcut to invoke this command is the [F7] key. In addition to the Spelling & Grammar check, the user can also utilize the Thesaurus and Word Count features to improve readability and accuracy. The thesaurus offers a collection of synonyms that can replace words that are used too often. It is a great tool for solving crossword puzzles! The Word Count is also automatically updated on the status bar.
