Hi Fholman,

In that case, you could tell the grammar checker to ignore the rule (capitalization), but that would apply to other words as well.

Sorry Macropod, it doesn't claim a misspelling, it claims a grammar error for
using a capital when Word believes it should be lower case.

The difference being:

This summer we went camping.

Last weekend Summer and I went camping.

Paste both into Word and see the results. Change the second sentence to:

Last weekend Mary and I went camping.

You now see my dilemma.

Word wants me to make it incorrect.

Hi Fholman,

Have you tries adding the names to your custom dictionary (ie the 'add' option when the spellchecker thinks its found an error
but
you think the spelling is correct)?

How do I get Word to stop telling me that the proper name of a person,
Summer, is incorrect as it has determined that I refer to the season, not a
woman?

I know many ladies named after seasons, however, I do not wish to turn that
function off completely. (I have a cousins named December, April, May, June,
and know people named, Summer and Winter.)

I write some lengthy tales at times and every time I open the document to
add to it, I am promted to fix my errors that are not errors.

If I can just have Word ignore the word Summer in this document, I'll take
responsibility for making certain should I refer to a season it shall not be
capitalized.

Thank you for any help you can give.
