    Default Spellcheck in schedules

    Using Revit 2012. I noticed a spelling error in my room schedule but when I tried to use "Find & Replace" it doesn't work in the schedule. As I'm not looking forward in correcting every entry in the schedule I would welcome any suggestions.

    Probably the only way is to export the schedule, open it in Excel, run spell-check, and copy-paste back into the Revit schedule the words that were corrected in Excel.

    Which is why there needs to be a Spell Check function in Schedule Views. Or, AutoDesk needs to build in a easier Export/Import function into Revit. I would also like to see us be able to select multiple rows or cells to quickly edit information, instead of cell by cell.

    Cheers,
    Jeff S.

    Alfredo modified script to copy and past from Excel to Revit. I have used it, and it works great, it just takes a while.

    BTW, Thank you Alfredo for the revision to that script.

    Thanks for the suggestions. Thought I might have missed something but it's evident schedules need to be able to spellcheck as Jeff S pointed out.

    Autodesk is looking into re-vamping Schedules. My guess would be they need to be redone completely.

    Hopefully, Spell Check will be one of the new features.

    (BTW, that survey is closed, so don't bother trying it. The post is from January)
