Hi

here's a macro that will list your spelling errors at the end of the
document

----
Sub print_sp_errors()
Set myErrors = ActiveDocument.Range.SpellingErrors
If myErrors.Count = 0 Then
MsgBox "No spelling errors found."
Else
Selection.EndKey Unit:=wdStory
Selection.TypeParagraph
Selection.TypeText "Spelling Errors"
Selection.TypeParagraph
For Each myErr In myErrors
Selection.TypeText myErr.Text
Selection.TypeParagraph
Next
End If
End Sub
---

not sure of the code to automatically add the references to the custom
dictionary - maybe some else has an idea

Cheers

What would be handy would be a macro that would compile a separate list of
the spelling "errors" that could then be edited and added manually to the
custom dictionary. I wouldn't have a clue as to how to go about writing
such a macro, though.

Hello,

When writing a Word Doc with many technical terms I find the process of
having to right click each red-underlined "mis-spelling" very time
consuming.

I click each one and either say "Add" or "Ignore All". I don't want to
turn off automatic spell checking for the entire document. If there a
way to highlight a bunch of text with spelling errors and "Add" them
all at once? Or is there a keyboard shortcut to add the most recently
red-underlined word?

Thanks.
