Hi ,

We have 100's of layers and to maintain the data quality we have to perform spell checking on the attribute tables. So my question is is there any way we can check all the attributes string values through FME or is there any spell check transformer. There is always a possibility to have typo or misspell, so cleaning thinngs using FME will be great.

use the python caller. there is a nice module called autocorrect.

make sure you log the ones that are changed, cause depending on input words, you could get some funny ones.
