WD98: How to Create an Exclude Dictionary (181640)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Word 98 Macintosh Edition
This article was previously published under Q181640 SUMMARY
This article describes how to create an exclude dictionary. An exclude
dictionary contains words that the main dictionary recognizes as being
spelled correctly, but that you want questioned during a spelling check.
Using an exclude dictionary allows you to specify preferred spellings for
certain words.
For example, if you prefer "theatre" rather than "theater," add "theater"
to the exclude dictionary so that if Word finds "theater" during a spell
check, it prompts you for the correct spelling.
Once you create an exclude dictionary, Word uses it automatically with the
main dictionary. If you want to check spelling without using the exclude
dictionary, rename the exclude dictionary before you check spelling in a
document.
