Is this a spell check error?

Lots of words which end with full stops, and especially two letter ones, appear as spelling errors in Publisher 5 with Windows 7. This is annoying more than anything else. Is this just my problem or univeral? Thanks

Hi Steven,

I did not noticed it before, perhaps because there are not so many 2 words letters in french that can end a sentence, or because I do not use abbreviations often, but it seems that the same bug occurs with the French language spell-checker.
I done some tests :
* All 2 chars words I tested that are accepted alone are underlined when followed by a dot ('.').
* Also, any composed word containing a dash ("-") is fully underlined as an error instead of taken as two joined words.
* I did not noticed any problems with others punctuation chars (, ; : ? ! " « »), even when they follow imediately a word (in french, "twin lines" punctuation chars like ; : ! and ? are supposed to be preceded and followed by a space)
* Single quote should be taken as séparator in french, please see my post from april 17th...
