PowerPoint fills the Change To box initially with possible correct spellings. Once you or PowerPoint has entered the correct spelling in the Change To box, click the Change button to correct the misspelling. Or, if you want to change the spelling everywhere it appears in the outline, click the Change All button.
If the word is not really a misspelling, click the Ignore button to ignore the single occurrence found, or click the Ignore All button to ignore every occurrence in the outline. If you are using words that are correctly spelled but are not in the spelling dictionary— this may be the case if you are clicking the Ignore or Ignore All buttons—click the Add button to add the word to the custom spelling dictionary.
You typically add words such as people’s names and specialized business or industry terms to the custom spelling dictionary. If the Spelling command identifies a misspelling but doesn’t identify the correct spelling using the Suggestions box, you can try to get additional suggestions. To do this, enter another guess at the spelling in the Change To box and then click the Suggest button. PowerPoint will use the word you entered in the Change To box to look for other suggested spellings.
