Hi   Paula,,

A good point, I hadn't thought that early might appear several times in the book when it really meant early. So I'll just do a find as you say and correct it that way. I think it appears a lot of times in the book but I have the time and it will make it a much better copy.
Thanks.

Bud,

    Ranked Spelling only shows misspelled words, so "early" wouldn't be
there. It would be dangerous to do a mass replace, since some occurrences of
"early" are probably not supposed to say "Carly". I suggest doing a find for
"early", and replacing only the occurrences where the context indicates that
it should say "Carly". I know this sounds tedious, but it really may not
take too long, and it's the only way to make sure you replace only the words
that are incorrect.

HTH,
Paula
