Finalizing a Workbook
After customizing your workbook content, structure, and format, Excel provides you with features
to finalize your workbook. It’s important to spell check a workbook for accuracy before
printing or sending to others. You can also add document properties and a header and footer
to your worksheet for document identification. If you are working with a large worksheet, you
can customize page breaks and how your worksheet prints.
Check Spelling
The Spelling feature scans a worksheet and locates words that do not match entries in its
main dictionary. You can add entries to the main dictionary such as proper names or technical
terms. Duplicated words are also identified when you check spelling. You can check an entire
worksheet or a selected range of cells. If you are not at the beginning of your worksheet, Excel
starts spell checking at the active cell and checks to the end of the worksheet. When it reaches
the end of the worksheet, a dialog box displays and asks if you want to continue checking at
the beginning of the sheet. The Spelling dialog box displays several options when Excel finds
an error. The following table describes each option.
