how to calculate misspelling btn two words?

[abdellatif99]

Partial value match is the match of a majority of the feature. Partial value match returns a value between 0 and 1.

For example:

Target Feature Value: Geology

Matches To:

Case Feature Value: Gelogy

Comparison of the two values produces a similarity assessment value
of 0.86. This is computed by the equation: (1 - number of misspellings)
divided by number of characters in the longer word.

Obviously your algorithm is based on a spelling checker - VFP doesn't come with one that can be distributed. It's possible that the 3rd party Spelling checker you purchase may have this feature built in.
