I ditto the message singing the praises of Word Proof.  It is an
amazing value.  After seeing and using it for the first time, I
criticized its editor, but was impressed by it spelling checker
which gave you SOUNDEX type alternatives and its synonym finder
capability.  My estimate for its cost far exceeded its actual cost.
Upon learning the real price, I decided to give up any more 
attempts at software development---leaving it to people who can
do a much better job for a fraction of the cost.
