Thanks David!
I was thinking along similar lines, i.e. putting all of the captions from the project into a word readable document. Once the misspellings/typos are found, I could use Versatools to relocate the misspelled words in the project. I'm following up on your suggestions. Thanks again.

You might not want to directly change them though in the builder because you could run in to "relative positioning anomalies" if the caption changes length.
