Can I add entries to the thesaurus

I'd like to have Word pop up a *choice* of company-provided terms while I'm
typing (I guess I will have AutoCorrect active), so that I can simply choose
the appropriate term instead of merely accepting the nearest spellings. The
main reason I need this is for expanding the many acronyms my company uses
--- and many of them could easily stand for more than one thing, so I'd like
to see a list of appropriate choices. Secondarily, I'd like Word to pop up
the company-approved version of an acronym when I start typing the spelled
out version of a compound that takes an odd capitalization (i.e., intercaps),
such as wURL.

The short answer is no, but you could use autotext to list your acronyms.
Word 2007 does not have autocomplete, but still has the list. Compound names
such as wURL are probably easiest dealt with using autocorrect.
