When using Word 97, spell checking words containing wildcards is a handy aid for crossword puzzles. For example, spell checking b??k or b*k returns a list of words (book, bonk, bunk etc etc). Doing the same with Word 2000 produces no results at all. Word 2000 will only produce a list of words when using only one ? wildcard character. How can I make the Word 2000 spell checker work the same way as in Word 97?
