Read your HELP... Use the Help's search for Spelling

I wasn't clear i guess. When I spell check, it pops with this Dialog box. And we got good amount of data. And I am pretty sure there must be some typos out there.
Its' like its not even doing anything but popup with this dialog.

Is the typing directly in the project or is it an import family?

what anthony is getting at is that there are quite a few things that Revit skips while doing spell check including text in families, keynotes, etc. I think really all it checks is text notes but I could be mistaken...

I discovered something that is not clear in the Help: Spelling only seems to check the active view.

unscientific experiment: someone pointed out an obvious misspelling on my review set. I opened the project and ran spell check from a sheet page - produced thee same less than useful information dialog. Change to the view I know has the error, run spell-check and it shows up half dozen questionable targets (mostly trade names) including the error I was after.

Hope that helps.
