1. INTRODUCTION
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> Since 86, the TRILAN 1 team has taken an active interest in detection and correction of errors in French written texts. First centered on lexical errors (Courtin, 89), research work has  developments aim at building a complete system for detection and correction of errors (Courtin, 91), and even to define a more extensive Computer Aided Writing system (GenthiaL 92).</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="1"> In this kind of system, we have at our disposal a large number of modules, each with its own linguistic competence (morphology, phonetic, syntax). In this paper, we are interested in the correction process: the aim is to integrate at best the linguistic knowledge of each module in order to lead to a system capable of making automatic corrections (in a natural language man-machine interface), or almost automatic (in a computer aided writing system). The paper is centered on agreement errors correction, specially frequent in French, but we hope to widen the technique to other kinds of errors.</Paragraph>
