When doing the spelling and grammar check, it doesn't correct small i?
For some reason, Microsoft Word spelling & grammar under review doesn't correct the small i into capital I? It neither finds out where the full stop or commas should be? I am looking for a solution that would identify the spelling and grammar error after the document is completed. This is because I copy the text from somewhere else and then try to correct the errors. Any help is appreciated.

Generally, spellcheck is more reliable than grammar check in Word. However, when I'm running a manual spellcheck with F7 in Word 2019, the spellchecker certainly flags an error for "i" (see screen shot).
Are you sure that the language is correctly set in your text? See http://wordfaqs.ssbarnhill.com/MasterSpellCheck.htm.
- Have you copied the text to word? I've attached my document to my reply to Nikolino.
Hello Bhupinder1 ,
I opened your document and the only time I can replicate your issue is when I have the box with "Do not check spelling or grammar" ticked. I appologize for asking the obvious - but can you please check whether this box is (or not) checked when you double click the language option on your status bar?
Thank you. L.
Click on "File" in the ribbon and select "Options".
In the next dialog box, open the Document Review section.
Check the box next to “Check spelling as you type”.
Spelling errors are then marked with red wavy lines.
Also check the box next to "Mark grammatical errors while typing".
These errors are marked with blue wavy lines.
Ignore uppercase words, numbers, or Internet addresses when checking spelling
I would be happy to know if I could help.

Thanks NikolinoDE . Sorry, I didn't describe the problem well enough. I am looking for a solution that would identify the spelling and grammar error after the document is completed. This is because I copy the text from somewhere else and then try to correct the errors.
