Spell Check

[Steve]

When using the Spell Check, I inadvertantly clicked on the "Add" button,
which put a word I misspelled into my Spell Check list. I would like to
remove this unwanted word, but I cannot figure out to get rid of it, since
there isn't a "Remove" button in the Spell Check window. Does anyone know if
this word can be taken out of Spell Check? Thanks.

It would depend on which spell checker you use. Mine, in Windows Live Mail
has an "Edit" button on the Spelling Tab in Tools menu, Options. Also, they
all use a file to store the data, which you might find and edit, if you knew
the name.

You didn't say if you have Microsoft Word on your computer. If you do then
chances are your spell check is using it. To edit and delete the word you
want to get rid of, do the following. Open Word.
On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Spelling & Grammar tab.
Click Custom Dictionaries.
Select the dictionary you want to edit. Make sure you do not clear its check
box.
Click Modify.
Do one of the following:
To add a word, type it in the Word box, and then click Add.
To delete a word, select it in the Dictionary box, and then click Delete.
To edit a word, delete it, and then add it with the spelling you want.
