You can spell check your PowerDesigner models if you have MS Word 2000 or higher installed on your machine, and if your system code page is consistent with the model language. For example, for the spell checker to work properly on a Chinese model, your system code page should be Chinese.
Note: You must enable the Spell Checker add in before use. To do so, select , click the Add-Ins category, and select the Spell Checker add in in the list, then click OK to return to your model. To set preferences, select and choose the model objects properties for which you want to check the spelling. If you select Check sub-objects, then all the child objects of any object you check will also be checked. You can also specify the dictionary language to use when spell checking.
- Right-click an object or a model node in the Browser and select Spell Check. If an error is found the Spell Checking dialog opens.
- For each error, you can:
-
Click Change to accept the
suggested replacement word.
-
Type your own replacement and click Change
-
Click Change All to apply the change to the entire object or model.
-
Click Add to add the word to your custom dictionary
