If the "repeated words" are all numbers, check (at least temporarily) the
box for "Ignore words with numbers" on the Spelling & Grammar tab of Tools |
Options.

Unfortunately I can find no specific option for this aspect of the Spell
Check. There is a feature which pertains to words with numbers, but
evidently
considers only words containing a mixture of letters and digits. It seems
to
have no effect on digit-only strings.
The only other thing I can come up with for now is only practical if your
'repeaters' are consistantly the same groups of digits. If so, you could
create a Custom dictionary for them. If these values are random that would
be
a thankless task.
Perhaps one of the MVPs has a trick up his/her sleeve, so continue to
check
back. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.
BTW- If I might ask, why is it that tabs cannot be used?
LOL |:)

This does not solve my problem, since I can't replace the spaces with
Tabs.
Is there another way to ignore repeated word?

The simplest way without diluting the effectiveness of Spelling &
Grammar is
to use the Tab key to separate the groups of figures rather than the
Spacebar. That will also work much better to maintain consistent
spacing,
especially if there are columns of figures to be aligned, such as:
0.000 0.000 0.000
0.000 0.000 0.000
LOL |:)

Applying the spell checker to a technical document, where numbers
are repeated
aeveral times on the same line ( i.e 0.000 0.000 0.000), the
repeated words
are flagged. How can I set the spell checker so repeated words are
ignored
automatically ( not having to ignore it one by one)
