How could I add a word to the Word spell checker? Thank you, Barry Karas P.S. I bought my computer during 2004.
If you see a word with the red wavy underline that means that it wasn't found in the dictionary, and you want to add it to your custom dictionary, right-click the word and choose Add to Dictionary. If the word was found during a manual spell-check (F7), there's an Add to Dictionary button in that dialog. You can also add words directly to the custom dictionary, which is simply a text file -- with one word per line -- that has been renamed with a .dic extension. See http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/EditCustomDic.htm for details. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
