Word is not a dictonary that's why. Common phrases can be put into Word and Word will say it's right even when they aren't in the truest sense.

 

Word is for common people to use. It doesn't fix everything.

I typed in your little sentence of question in my AOL Email spell check, and it corrected it from a period at the end to a Quesiton mark.

Oh, man...I just drew up the funniest mental picture of Johnson reading this thread, opening Microsoft Word, and staring at it with tears in his eyes, before shaking his fist at the heavens and screaming, "Why, damn you? WHYYYYYY?!?"

 

Microsoft Word: the complete authority on everything.

Then why would Word not say it was a mistake. That's all I'm asking.

Word's grammar checker is a joke. Sure, it'll catch some of the more common fuckups, but I've seen many, many cases where it saw a lot of things which simply weren't there. The only worse one I've ever seen was in the late-1990s versions of WordPerfect. I always disable the Grammar-as-you-go "feature" and always ignore Word's grammar suggestions.
