MS Office Forum / Word / Spelling and Grammar / February 2007Added a word by mistake to Word 2007 custom dictionary
I accidentally added a misspelling to the custom dictionary in Word 2007 by right-clicking the Word and clicking Add to Dictionary. How can I remove that word from the dictionary so it will continue to be marked with a red wavy underline? Thanks in advance. Arlene Click the Office button > Word Options > Proofing. In the middle of the dialog, click the Custom Dictionaries button. In the next dialog, click the Edit Word List button. And in the third dialog, select the incorrect word and click the Delete button. -- 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. >I accidentally added a misspelling to the custom dictionary in Word 2007 by >right-clicking the Word and clicking Add to Dictionary.

Have you found this too or maybe because you're so familair with Word, you don't have a need to use it. I'm really disappointed in the 07 Help feature.

It's been going steadily downhill since Word 2000. -- 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. >Jay--when I go into Word Help and type a keyword in the search box like I did >to try to track this answer down with "spell check," I rarely get hits even [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] >> > >> >Arlene |
