Oh, I never use it for spelling!  I don't understand how you are
supposed to go look something up to see how it is spelled when the
dictionary is organized by the spelling.  In the fourth grade I spent an
hour trying to find one word, I looked at every work in the "w" section
and never found the word "once" (think about it, we say it as if it
begins with a "w", at  least we did in Boston).
