I ALWAYS type 'form' instead of 'from'. How do I make word mark both words as
incorrect so I can confirm I spelled it correctly in the context of the
sentence?

Suzanne's advice if great and something I can and will use, though for
different reasons.

Anyway, another option is to use Word's Grammar Checker. You can set it to
be pretty lax and it'll still pick up that sort of a misuse, in my
experience at least.

"Form" vs. "from" is also the kind of typo that will very likely be picked
up by the contextual spelling checker in Word 2007.

The contextual spelling checker in 2007 is good but not quite psychic.
It does flag 'form' in the sentence

He went form Padua to Mantua.

However, it doesn't complain about 'from' in the sentence

Please fill out this from.
