I have MS Word 2002 and I cannot find the dictionary. I want to be able to look up the definition of a word. What am I missing?
 
Word 2002 does not include a dictionary in which you can look up words. It
contains a thesaurus (which provides synonyms and the like), a spelling
checker (which checks spelling), and a grammar checker (which...). Together
these constitute the "proofing tools." To get a look-up dictionary, you must
install one as an add-in. I believe this is possible with the Encarta World
Dictionary.
