The Toledo Public School district has distributed Word Spring (formerly Tray Suite) to all 10,000 computers. This includes staff, teachers and students. They will all benefit from the Thesaurus and Definitions Dictionary, as well as being able to spell check their email and other Windows programs.

The complaints handling application allows companies to process various types of complaints and is used by many different types of organizations, both public and private.

The software company contacted Alcoda Software with the following requirements:

• Client Operating System support: Windows (95, 98, NT & 2000)
• Language Support : UK English, US English, Dutch (as a minimum)
• Stand-alone: No development effort required, i.e. add to installation routine
• Ease of use: at least as easy/ intuitive as say Microsoft Word for example, i.e. highlight & hot-key
• Spell checking capabilities: as "good" as Microsoft Word, limited yet accurate, options returned
• Look & feel: similar to "the standard", i.e. Microsoft Word

They chose our product over about 50 others in their Internet search and evaluation process. The Distribution License negotiation was based on our generous and flexible Site License pricing.

Write Source is integrated into the complaints handling application's install procedure and silently installed, placing shortcuts in the appropriate Start Menu group. Users can now spell check any data within any field in the complaints database.

Active Spell and the Site License Pricing were two deciding factors in their decision. Another important consideration was the company's future plans to expand into the international market, which would require using some of Alcoda Software's many different language spelling dictionaries.

The company's transcribers specialize in more than one language and can choose their individual specific dictionaries from our many different language spelling dictionaries.

ILTS is using Spell Magic to spell check and validate words in many different levels of their textbooks. Read more...

Many of the users are sales people who use Spell Magic on their Win95 laptops.

Their programmers and content writers use an office computer as well as tele-computing from home.

With Write Source, they will not only be able to spell check their content, but extend their prose using Roget's Thesaurus and Definitions Dictionary.

In addition to Write Source being able to provide the benefits they need, there was an important question about the Site License. Could an employee install Write Source on both the office and home computer, and be counted as one licensee.

Yes, the Write Source Site License is flexible enough to allow one programmer or content writer to install and use on both computers, as long as they are not used concurrently.

They will be adding several more licenses soon and these will be added a reduced per user license fee, based on the total number of users (not based on just the added number). Another example of flexible Alcoda Software Site License.

The officers use the editor to create and spell check the narrative portion of their report. They fill out some portions of their report and when ready to write the narrative part of the report, they click a button in CHRIS, which opens our editor. The officer then writes the narrative, formats it, spell checks it and when ready closes the editor. CHRIS/Oracle8 then saves the narrative into the it's database.

EditExt replaces the "Oracle" editor and opens an Oracle temporary file in AutoSave Mode (using the -AS command line parameter) with Margins dynamically set, using the -Mxx command line parameter.

The user clicks within the Oracle8 database and EditExt is launched with the desired text (via an Oracle8 created temporary file) in the same margin layout (using EditExt's custom margins command line switch/parameter), they edit the file, spell check with regular spell checking or Active Spell, closes the document or EditExt. The file is automatically saved (using another EditExt command line switch/parameter) back to the temporary file and Oracle takes care of the rest.

In addition to having spell check available for their specific agency application, the users have the benefit of using spell check, or using the Thesaurus and Definitions Dictionary, with any program they have on the local hard drive or network. Write SourceEditor is also available at the touch of HotKeys and is the Notepad replacement.

A Medical Transcriptionist must be able to quickly edit documents because there are many doctors and reports. Write Source's spell check provides that, as well as easy use of our excellent Medical Dictionary.

This center was also very helpful in developing the Medical spelling dictionary and for that we are very grateful.

Speed, accuracy and intuitive use are important so the editor can concentrate on their production.
