Thanks Suzanne, I did as you suggested, and the "Do not check: box was not
checked. Any other thoughts?

In that case the word must have been formatted as "Do not check spelling
or
grammar." Select just the word, go to Tools | Language | Set Language,
check
to see which language is selected, and make sure the "Do not check" box
is
not checked.

Occassionally word does not recognize my misspelled words. I typed
the
word
diagonosis in a document this morning, which I knew was incorrect, but
I
couldn't remember how to spell. I highlighted the word and asked for
a
spellcheck. Word said it was finished with the selection. I then
finished
my
document, and ask for a check of the entire document, again, the error
was
not noticed. The error was noticed only after highlighting and asking
for
the Thesarus. I did check my dictionaries thinking that I may have
inadvertently added the mispelled word, but it was not in my
dictionary.
