Why is my 'Add to dictionary' option 'greyed out' in Word 2003?

Guest

Words that Word thinks are misspelled have the wavy red line under them. I
want to add them to my dictionary but when I left-click on the word, the
drop-down has the 'Add to Dictionary' option grayed out, so I can't use it.
How do I reset it to be active and selectable?

Thank you.

John Fowler.

Not exactly the same symptom, but see “You receive an error message when you
add a word to the custom dictionary in Word 2003â€
