Default Grammar check!

Word 2000. Just found irrefutable proof of something I've long suspected,
and that is the inconsistency and self-contradictory tendency of the grammar
checker.

I was editing a document that contained the expression 'well-being'. On f7,
Word objected and wanted to substitute the two words unhyphenated. OK, only
one mention of the expression so no consistency problems. Let's go with
Microsoft this time. So I accepted but Microsoft now wanted the hyphen back!
I accepted again. Back to the original objection. Repeated acceptances just
left me in a loop. It seemed nothing would satisfy the beast...
