I am using Word 2000 and for some reason the spell check does not recognise the word "hsa" as incorrect, it should be "has" Every other word appears to be checked correctly. I have tired to research this but simply got confused. Any guidance would really be appreciated thank you

ahs probably is a word. You can add it to an exclude dictionary. http://word.mvps.org/faqs/general/excludewordfromdic.htm -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.

Puzzled by 'ahs' as a word and driven by my desire to better my English I checked: AHS is an acronym, has multitude of meanings, ranging from African Horse Sickness to Anno Humanae Salutis. Most are ‘Asomething High School’. -- JanAdam "Charles Kenyon" wrote: > ahs probably is a word.
