NOTE: Excel doesn’t check spelling in cells that contain formulas.

Correct spelling as you type

Both AutoComplete and AutoCorrect can help fix typing errors on the go.

AutoComplete, on by default, helps to maintain accuracy as you type by matching entries in other cells and does not check individual words in a cell, AutoComplete can be handy when creating formulas.

AutoCorrect fixes errors in a formula’s text, worksheet control, text box, and chart labels. Here’s how to use it:

Click File - Options.

Under the Proofing category, click AutoCorrect Options, and check the most likely typing errors.

NOTE: You can’t use AutoCorrect for text in a dialog box.
