Incorrectly spelled words saved in MS Word dictionary July 10 2006
Q: Sometimes when using the Spell Checker feature in Word, I have added several incorrect spellings to the Dictionary. How can I delete them?
A: Here’s how:
-In Word:
1. Tools > Options…
2. Click the ‘Spelling & Grammar’ tab
3. Click the ‘Custom Dictionary…’ button
-The Custom Dictionary window appears
At this point, you usually have one dictionary highlighted called ‘Custom.dic’. If not, then select it
4. Click the ‘Modify’ button
-This brings up all the words in the dictionary
5. Browse through the list and Select/Delete the words that are incorrect
-When done
6. Click OK
7. Click OK
8. Click OK
By the way: The Spell Checker in Word is the same Spell Check mechanism that is used in all Microsoft Office software (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Access, etc). When you make the above changes in Word, the dictionary will be updated in these programs too. |
