Correct misspelling in large messy data

fitch1892

I have a ton of messy data im trying to clean but the problem im running into is that there are so many misspelling words. For example, 

i have easape, eascape, eascpe, and even more misspelling  of the word  escape. I aslo have several more of the same. Is there anyway I can correct the misspelling without being  too specific? Ive tried using fuzzy match and find and replace, but im not having any luck.

I haven't used this before but here's something uploaded.  Based on the thread, you'll need to download the actual tool from the second page.
