When you type 'Please advise' in an email, spell check always want s to
change 'advise' to 'advice'. This is incorrect. Advise is to offer assistance, Advice is to make suggestions. It drives me crazy that everyone changes it to meet Microsofts stipulation without thinking about the meaning of the word. Could we please have this changed? ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.
