Good to hear.  I suggest using the Resource Sheet view to make any resource specific corrections.

    I figured it out. I had to double click on " Assign Resources" which brought up the entire list of resources I had, click on the mispelled one, respell it, and then hit the button to the right that says "REPLACE".

    Can you go to the Resource Sheet and change the name there?  What version of Project?  Where are you double clicking the name?

    It's a stand alone file. I've tried double-clicking the resource name, which opens the pop up window, where I can try to retype the name there as well. It doesn't seem to matter there either. It allows me to retype, but then still puts the name in misspelled. Here's what I'm trying to do, actually. I spelled Cyberex  like this "CYberex". I want to correct it. It won't allow me.

    Hi MichaelA1965,

    Are you working with resources from Project Server or are your resources in a stand-alone project file?
