The Count property for this collection in a document returns the number of items in the main story only. To count items in other stories use the collection with the Range object. If all the words in the document or range are spelled correctly and are grammatically correct, the Count property for the ProofreadingErrors object returns 0 (zero) and the SpellingChecked and GrammarChecked properties return True.

There is no ProofreadingError object; instead, each item in the ProofreadingErrors collection is a Range object that represents one spelling or grammatical error. |
