Flashcard Exchange does not have an integrated spell checker but that doesn’t mean you can’t spell check your flashcards! There are a number of spell check options available:

1. Google! Simply go to google and paste in the text you want to spell check. Google will let you know if anything is not spelled properly. This is the best option for non-English spell checking.
2. IESpell ieSpell is a free Internet Explorer browser extension that spell checks text input boxes on a webpage.
3. Spellbound Spellbound is a spell checking plugin for the Mozilla Firefox web browser.

1. First create a card set.
2. After creating a card set you will be shown the new card page. Just under the header you will see an enclosed area with the title of your card set. Click import.
3. From the import screen change the field separator to semicolon.
4. Type your flashcards in the data text area.
5. Each card should be on on a separate line with question and answer divided by a semicolon. Example:

question 1;answer 1
question 2;answer 2
question 3;answer 3

• Using this method your cards cannot contain a semicolon.
• You should not enter any more than 50–100 flashcards at a time. If you spend 4 hours typing in flashcards and are bumped off-line you could lose your hard work!

If you are only entering small one word question and answer pairs it is much faster to use a space as the separator.

1. From the My Stuff header menu select “My Flashcards”
2. Click on the card set you would like to modify.

5. Click the Save Order button at the top of the page to save your changes.

The current recommendation for importing flashcards MS Excel is to first import your your data into a Google Spreadsheet and then use the Google Spreadsheet import. This will handle a larger variety of data and avoid many problems associated with the import process below.

1. Format your flashcards into a two column worksheet with questions in the first column and answers in the second column. Place hint data in the third column if you want to import hint data too.
2. Copy the contents of the two (or three) column worksheet. Press ctrl+end to go to the last used cell. Next press shift+ctrl+home to select the entire range. Finally ctrl+c (apple+c on a Mac) will copy the range to the clipboard.
3. Place your cursor in the “Data” of the import form and paste in the data (ctrl+v on Windows, apple+v on a Mac).
4. Make sure the field separator is set to “tab”.
5. Press the import button to import your data.

Checking the “Include Hint” checkbox on the import flashcard form indicates your intent to include hint data in your import. Hint data is included as a third column. If, for instance, you are importing some flashcards and have the field separator set to comma the data field would like like this:

question 1,answer 1,hint 1

question 2,answer 2,hint 2

2 flashcards would be imported, complete with their hints.

A field separator is the way in which different parts of a flashcard are broken up during an import. If, for instance, you set the field separator to space and entered the following information:

red blue
green orange

Two flashcards would be created. On the first flashcard the the question would read “red” and the answer would read “blue”. On the second flashcard the question would read “green” and the answer would read “orange”.

Simliarly, if the field separator were “comma” you would want to enter the data like this:

red,blue
green,orange

This form field on the importing page allows you to enter line breaks in your questions and answers. Leave this field blank if your flashcards to not contain line breaks. If you do not enter anything in this form field your flashcards will contain one line of text only.
If you enter something in this form field your data will be scanned for your entry and it will be replaced with an actual line break. For instance, if you enter:

Your flashcard data would be scanned and any occurances of NEWLINE will be replaced with a line break.
