    Problem

    How to edit the spell checker dictionary

    Solution

    Here are a few examples of editing the dictionary

    To add the currently flagged word to the user dictionary

    1.When a word is highlighted in the 'Not in dictionary' field on the Spell Checker dialog box, click the Add button. The highlighted word is added to the user dictionary.

    To add a word to the user dictionary and assign it a Spell Checker action

    1 .From the Spell Checker dialog box, click the Dictionary button. The Edit User Dictionary dialog box opens.

    2. In the Word field, type the word you want to add to the user dictionary.

    3. (Optional) In the Suggested word field, type the word you want to appear in the Spell Checker dialog box as the first replacement word suggestion. This field only applies when you choose either of the two ?Conditionally change? options mentioned in the next step. When Spell Checker flags the word you added to the user dictionary, the word's suggested replacement that you typed in the Suggested word field appears in the Spell Checker dialog box's Change to field, and also as the first entry in the Suggestions list box.

    4. To make Spell Checker ignore (treat as correctly spelled) the added word, from the Action pull-down menu, choose Ignore (skip). or To make Spell Checker flag the added word, but display the specified Suggested word (step 3) with the same case as the flagged word, from the Action pull-down menu, choose Conditionally change, using case of checked word. or To make Spell Checker flag the added word, but display the specified Suggested word (step3) with the same case as the Suggested word, from the Action pull-down menu, choose Conditionally change, using case of suggested word. or To make Spell Checker flag the added word and provide the default list of suggestions, from the Action pull-down menu, choose Exclude (treat as misspelled).

    5. Click the Add word button. The new word is added alphabetically to the Word list box

    (to the left of the Add word button).
