Grammar check finds fragments that aren't

[Guest]

Often in my word documents the grammar checker will identify setences as
fragments when they are actually good sentences. The only option I can
find--short of turning off the auto-check feature--is to "ignore once."
Then, every time the document is opened later, I get the same green underline
telling me there's a problem with the sentence. Is there any way to force
the grammar checker to just accept my perfectly good sentence and not bother
me about it unless a) I change the sentence in some way, or b) when I run a
full spelling/grammar check? Thanks.

As far as I know, there's no way to change what the grammar check recognizes,
although you should be able to change the "sensitivity" to a certain extent in
the Options. For the problem of re-opening documents: you could select such
phrases and apply "Do not check spelling or grammar" from Tools/Language/Set
language.
