How do I correct incorrect spelling in the Dictionary?
Well, some description would help, especially the version of Word you're
using and exactly what you mean by "incorrect spelling." If you have added an incorrectly spelled word to your custom dictionary, you can edit the dictionary to remove it. How you go about this varies from one version to another, but start with the Spelling & Grammar tab of Tools | Options and follow your nose. Also see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/EditCustomDic.htm If Word's built-in dictionary is accepting a spelling you consider incorrect (or if you want to flag a correctly spelled word for any reason), you can create an exclusion dictionary; see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/Ex...ordFromDic.htm -- Suzanne S.

The word "description" is correctly spelled in the dictionary,
and your personal preference to use "discription" is incorrect. CanadianWoman wrote: Don't know that I need a discription, the question is kinda straight forward. |

You don't - and the spelling in your post suggests that you shouldn't even
if it were possible. -- Enjoy, Tony "CanadianWoman" wrote in message ... Don't know that I need a discription, the question is kinda straight forward. |

How do I correct incorrect spelling in the Dictionary?
The problem was that while in word (at work) some one had entered a word into
the dictionary while doing spell check. They entered it wrong and I was trying to figure out how to remove the incorrect word from the spell check dictionary. Your response helped with that.
