Somehow my "add to dictionary" option in Word has become unavailable...How do
I restore it?

[John McGhie [MVP - Word and Word Macintosh]]

"Unavailable" or "Gone"?

If it's "Unavailable" look up "Dictionary" in the Word help for a procedure
for handling spelling dictionaries. The "Add to dictionary" command will be
greyed out if there is not active custom dictionary for the Language
specified for the text in which the word you want to add occurs.

If the command has "Gone" look up "Reset toolbars" in the Help for a
procedure for restoring commands to toolbars.

Cheers

The "Add to dictionary" option is greyed out so this means I have no active
custom dictionary? If so, how do I restore that?
