Always spell check a word

[Guest]

I often type in "form"when I mean "from" but the spell checker does not pick
it up - because form is a correctly spelled word. Is there a way to make the
spell cheker always pop up when it finds the word "form" so that i can decide
if the usage is correct or if I need to change it?
Thanks!

Yes, see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/ExcludeWordFromDic.htm.

See Jay's response for the link. Like you, I've had this particular typo
cause problems enough. I've added both form and from to my exclude
dictionary.
